The 256GB SSD on my Surface Pro 4 is filling up and since I perceive I can't change out the SSD (or can I?), I am looking for ways to clean up the SSD. Using TreeSize Free utility, I notice that the directory C:\System Volume Information is consuming 100+GB of Space - 40% of my SSD capacity!! I perceive that the directory contains all the restore points since I bought the SurfacePro. I can't imagine that I need any more than the last one especially since I backup SSD images and retain them on my NAS for extended periods.
When I did some research, it appears that there are ways to delete old restore points but before I do that, I want to make sure it is safe to do so. Can it be done safely without the system dieing on me? (Even if it does, I assume I can always restore the most recent image using a boot USB created by my backup)? Thoughts on what method or app is best to do this?
Thanks, Bob
