Programe Files creates loads of files by the minute!

I have come back from Wales with a problem I had before I went there: nearly having no disk space at all for anything.

But that's not the worst of it.

Second by second, folders and files are being created in my Programe Files folder. How do I stop it? Is this normal for my machine?

Please help, my dad is desperate to free up some space before this computer becomes just what my old XP became: a piece of junk that no longer works.

Try a disc cleanup. Go to computer,c drive, disc clean up (including system files) Do that twice.

Go to control panel>programs and delte all programs that you do not want or need. Make a system resore point, first in case of problems.

There will be HD space used for the recovery functions. System Image, System Restore, Backup and restore and shadow copies. Every time a new SR point is made more space is used.

Try my suggestions and tell us what happened.
