How to keep C: drive lean

1 replies · 2,888 views · Started 01 February 2010

I like to use some of the Nokia apps but most insist on installing on the already meager C: drive

Most people here are aware that you should if you can install to E: mass memory or the memory card. But it only takes a few apps on C: for it to start getting full.

For my benefit and others what tips and ways are you aware of to cut out the rubbish - especially if you know of any common folders or caches to delete on a regular basis

My rather paltry effort is :-

Dont install the Nokia app (most install to C: without option to change destination) if you won't use it or need it eg the ngage app

also

Clear the internet browser cache regularly (from within the browser options menu)

I have also uninstalled or deleted some preinstalled software that i would never use (some will not uninstall though)

anyy other ideas
