I have my windows folders on a 60GB Crucial M4 SSD along with 1 other game however windows is telling me theres only 10.8 GB left. When i size up the files on the drive though theres a good 15GB thats MIA and there are no hidden files or anomalous files that i can see to cause this , any advice ?
 
if you do not use hiberation you should be able to disable hibernation and it'll automatically delete the hibernation file... I had the same issue. Plus I shrunk my page file, As I am running 16GB of Ram, lowered it to 4GBs, not a problem yet...
 
I disabled hibernation on my system cous of my SSD and lowered my paging file as well.

To disbaled hibernation do the following:

Open an elevated command promt.
type in powercfg -h off
hit enter.

Job done.

I would also recommend you lower the paging file as mine with windows running the show
was 9gig so i lower it to 4096.

I also disabled windows restore to save a truck load of space as well but you do this at
your own risk as if anything goes wrong you cant fall back on that to help you anymore,
if its disabled.
