writing temporary files, moving things around, and deleting files. If there is not enough free space on your hard drive, it is like trying to move cars in a stacked parking lot. You need at least 10% of your hard drive free, or it will slow to a crawl. Find the icon for your hard drive (usually in “My Computer”), right click on it, and choose “Properties.” If your hard drive is almost completely full, you need to make some room.

If you still need space, move pictures, movies, and music to an external hard drive, preferably one that is different than your backup drive. Do not bother deleting word documents and other small files.
