CS 5.5 with 120gb SSD
I have Windows 7 Pro and Premiere installed on this SSD. It has only 15 GB free. There must be some large hidden files. Any suggestions to reduce usage on my C Drive?

Re: CS 5.5 with 120gb SSD
Could be lots of things. Here's a place to start.
Guide to Freeing up Disk Space under Windows 7 - Scott Hanselman Specifically related to Adobe, most of the apps have cache files and/or a database. Each project can have preview files which could be on the system drive. Check Premiere Preferences -> Media section to see what's going on there. GL |

Re: CS 5.5 with 120gb SSD
I have made changes to accommodate this small SSD. My advice is to purchase a MUCH larger one if you are doing video editing.

Re: CS 5.5 with 120gb SSD
I have a 120GB SSD and CS6 Production Premium on Win7 and I've got 50GB free. It's not hard to keep the system drive clean. Cheers

Re: CS 5.5 with 120gb SSD
Shift your page file and,as Kawika suggests, your Adobe media cache and database onto other drives.
Move your Documents, e-mails, etc. from your user folder on C: to another drive. |

Re: CS 5.5 with 120gb SSD
However, the more RAM you have, the bigger your swap and hibernate files will be. I have 32 gigs of ram, and it also takes a toll on my SSD. Unless you are willing to work from a slower drive,

Or unless you're willing to disable hibernate as per Kawika's link.
