This little guy will clean up all those redistributables you install along with your games, such as "DirectX, Games For Windows Live Redist, VC Redist, Rapture3D, NVidia PhysX Redist, etc." Users on the thread posted overwhelmingly good things so I feel comfortable using the program. I myself freed about 20 gb.
Note: If you have multiple install paths across multiple HDDs then you need to point it to the other directory after cleaning the default one it finds on the C:\ drive.
Yeah about 10gb helps me, my D drive, my main steam drive was at like.. 30gb, so, that put it up to 40gb, more room for mods/updates/dlc is how I see it, very helpful!
Ok, lets give this a shot. I have installed (and deleted) so much junk from Steam its starting to worry me. I have a 2tb drive that barely got close to 50% full but Im sure there is stuff leftover. Also, I had never heard of the Winapp2 for CCleaner. Going to give that a shot as well. Im still new to Windows...came over from Linux so I could play all the best games and there is so much stuff that I never needed to do before now that Im using Windows more often
I think that because I run disk clean up frequently that I am not seeing leftover installers at all. Not to mention that I also run CCleaner too. But, it does seem that I have more DirectX installs in my Control Panel than games I have installed. But like I said above, the Tiki program only shows directx for installed games. I really want to know what games those other DirectXs belong to.
