C Drive Full - Having trouble freeing space — Nokia N95 and N95 8GB

Guys,
My N95 keeps reporting a full C drive. If I clear the browser cache that clears up about 3 mb, but that doesn't last long...

And the 3mb is getting smaller....

Advice appreciated...

Two free prog's that may help you track down your memory usage are:-

Y browser

http://www.drjukka.com/YBrowser.html

This will allow you to see what is on your Z:, C: and E: drives

JBTaskman

http://www.jbak.ru/jbaktaskman_en.php

This is a much better version of the task manager than the installed one that you get by pressing and holding the Menu key.

You could also go to Applications Manager and see if there are any prog's installed on C: that could be reinstalled on E:.

Keeping free space on C: disk :
1. Use always MemoryCard (= E: disk) for all your files and new downloaded Applications , to keep C: free
It is good to use a big micro SDHC Card like 2 , 4 , 8 or 16 GB .
2. Follow this thread , it is about 5800XM , but works also for N95 : http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/forum//forum/thread/84082/&highlight=Free+memory
Or this : http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/forum//forum/thread/84064/&highlight=Free+memory
3. Y-Browser is a good help . Or you can also use X-Plore . Take the free trial version , when you cannot pay . It works easier , and doesn't stop working after a certain period (shareware) :

4. One of the things JBak Taskman does : giving constant information about free and used space ( RAM , C: and E: ) . And a lot more
