WizTree maps every file on your drive by size, and it found 200GB of forgotten data on one 512GB laptop

One setting, both apps MakeUseOf's Digvijay Kumar opens the gear icon, See all settings, the General tab and the Images section on the Gmail website, chooses Ask before displaying external images instead of loading them automatically, saves the change, then repeats it in the mobile app under the menu, Settings and the account; the reason is that a hidden tracking pixel only fires when the image loads, which is how a sender logs the exact time a message was opened, and his cautions are that mail from banks and ticketing services can look incomplete until you tap the banner to show images, and that choosing to show them still lets that message report back.

compact /compactos:always XDA's Abhinav Raj checks the current state with compact /compactos:query in an administrator prompt, switches Compact OS on with compact /compactos:always for about 7GB back on his laptop and 5GB on his desktop, then compresses one chosen folder with compact /c /s:"C:\Users" /exe:lzx /i, which took roughly 30 minutes and squeezed 460,000 files from 190GB down to 158GB, for 38GB freed in total on a Legion 5 Pro; he is clear about the trade, since every later read spends processor cycles decompressing, already-compressed material such as game assets barely shrinks, and compact /compactos:never reverses the whole thing.

Clipboard history first MakeUseOf's Oluwademilade Afolabi switches on Clipboard History with Win and V, End Task on the taskbar under Settings, System, Advanced, and Dynamic Refresh Rate under Settings, System, Display, Advanced display, and keeps those three after trying and dropping title bar window shake, seconds on the clock, Nearby Sharing and Dynamic Lock; the limits he names are that clipboard history holds up to 25 entries with images capped at 4MB each, that Dynamic Refresh Rate needs a variable refresh display capable of at least 120Hz, that Dynamic Lock can take roughly a minute to lock after you walk away, and that End Task can take unsaved work down with it.

Number your labels Android Police's Irene Okpanachi works around Keep's missing folders by renaming labels with a leading number so they sort in the order she wants, deletes the raw link text once a preview card has loaded, color-codes notes red for urgent, yellow for in progress and green for finished so that searching by color turns into a kanban board, and pins one note called Clipboard to carry text between devices on the same Google account; her cautions are that a preview card can take anywhere from a few seconds to a minute, that she would not count on the clipboard note for anything immediate, and that Keep still cannot password-protect an individual note.
