PR is eating my SSD

Hello reader,

I have played one good round and had some major fun anyway, got laggy later on, frames dropped ... and I left.
Now the "problem", I use my SSD as bootdrive (60GB) and was half full around 29GB and as I opened computer I saw only 17 GB were left because my user folder is still on the SSD.

Any idea how this is possible?

Thanks :grin:

Um, the *.iso is >6gb
if you unzip it on SSD, that's another >6GB
you install it on SSD, that's another >6GB

So that would be exactly the 12 GB used?

You can move the user folder off the SSD to save space.

I did not install it on the SSD but you might be right about the downloading and unzipping.
Thanks I'll try those links you send

Good job on 1.0
It's very impressive
