The Disk Cleanup Wizard
In preparation for moving your data to a new partition, delete any temporary files that
consume space. Windows 8 can shrink the partition it’s installed on by only so much. The
more files and programs you have installed on the partition, the less Windows 8 will be able
to shrink the drive. To remove unneeded files, perform the following steps:
1. Open the Start screen and type free to find the Disk Cleanup Wizard, which will
be in the System section of the results, labeled as Free Up Disk Space By Deleting
Unnecessary Files, as shown in Figure below.

2. Run the wizard, indicating which drive you want to clean. (This will usually be the
C drive.)
You will be able to select various options in the Disk Cleanup dialog box for recovering
wasted space on your hard disk or Windows 8 partition. It is safe to choose any of
the available options in Desk Cleanup, which are illustrated in below Figure.
