Load the performance monitor (button on the Performance tab in task manager), go to Disk and see what process is doing it. You may have something like full disk indexing going.
Regarding Windows.old,isn't that supposed to auto - clear after ~30 days? Also, the first two articles on a search for "remove windows.old" appear to confirm my expectation that the disk cleanup tool will remove it, possibly without even running it as administrator. Frankly this sounds like it's getting into "respect mah authoritah" territory.
For the games, are those preinstalled? I haven't seen such, but most of the Win10 systems in dealing with so far are either upgrades or business class machines. If you're getting Enterprise systems preinstalled with 4gb of games someone needs to talk to your supplier.
- katastic 9y agoI said what was using disk usage. App telemetry, defender, compatibilty, etc. >Frankly this sounds like it's getting into "respect mah authoritah" territory. Yeah, it must really suck to have the burden of being able to delete files that aren't in use on your machine that you own, run, and paid Enterprise edition for. What possible use could a professional system administrator need for changing files on a machine... except the exact use I just mentioned. If you can't understand why having admin file access is important, then I suggest you never try Linux (or... Windows 7... or any IT job) because you will be horrified by the potential control you have over your system.
