How a Gamer Recovered 270GB for New Games

The Challenge

Alex R. faced a common problem - storage filling up with no clear understanding of where the space was going. Like many users, the first instinct was to buy more storage or upgrade hardware.

The Solution

After downloading TomYaYa's free version and running a scan, the results were eye-opening. TomYaYa identified exactly where the space was being wasted and provided tools to safely clean it up.

Key Actions Taken

1. Ran initial disk analysis to understand storage usage
2. Identified duplicate and redundant files
3. Used Smart Selection to safely choose which copies to keep
4. Verified results before permanent deletion

Key Takeaways

• Always scan for duplicates before buying more storage
• The free version is powerful enough for most users
• Preview and verification features prevent accidental deletion
• Regular scans help prevent buildup of duplicates
