PSA : SSD users, if you don't use hibernation, reclaim your SSD space by using this command

Even if your not a SSD user, you should use that command, imo. hibernation is meh, turn it off instead.

I also think you should get 8-16gb ram, and turn off the page file.

Even if you had 64Gb of Ram it is never recommended to turn off the page file.

Some programs will use the Page-File as a "scratch disk" regardless of how much Ram you have and some legacy programs/games require it to even function.

With that said, you can reduce your page file so it only takes up a couple of Gigabytes.

Disabling System Restore, Limiting your Recycle Bin's maximum size, Disk Cleanup after an update and using CCleaner can save a ton of space on your SSD as well.

You can also use a program called "Tree Size" to see where all your drive space is being used.
