Recently, I had to reduce storage space in my Computer.

Listing the 20 biggest files in the drive or folder,

deleting those which I don’t need any more and repeat this step

helped me a lot, especially in the Downloads folder.

Perhaps, these commands will come handy for you when you want to set some hard drive memory space free.
