    "This program worked great."

    December 4, 2011  |   By 370lbgorilla

    Pros

    I really needed a program like this as I was down to 1 GB of HD space and my system was really slow. What was eating up all my HD space? By using this program I was able to quickly identify the biggest offenders taking up space on my drive and delete all the unnecessary ones. I ended up with 20 GBs of free space which isn't bad for half of a 160 GB drive (drive C and D).

    Once you get used to how to interpret the data you are given, both in written and visual forms, this program is a snap and you are able to delete unwanted files right from this program without needing to back-out and go to "add/remove programs" to do so. A nice touch.

    Cons

    The program itself has a bit of a learning curve and their isn't a lot of help for the uninitiated in learning how to use it. Perhaps there are resources in this area on video sites and forums (I didn't look), but from the program itself it could have been made a little easier to learn it at first. But as stated in my Pros above, once learned this program is very easy to use.

    Summary

    It was exactly what I needed. It worked great and it's free! Can't complain. What a deal!
