So I am working on several different projects at once, and with those and work both only needing a few folders, why do I have at least 70 different folders? Hahaha, I think it is time I go through them and clean out what I don't need anymore, how many other people feel the same way?

I felt the same way that I made a completely new user account to get rid of the clutter! I am a "Let's Player" on youtube if you didn't know what that is well...I don't know how to explain it haha but yeah I had at least 130 folders of all my game recording sessions and I got overwhelmed that when I wanted to pick up PHP browser game programming I just started fresh.

Hahaha I have only seen a few "let's play" videos, some of them I found extremely entertaining!

you can see on one of my last videos how messy my Wamp directory has gotten, Like 20 games in there. My unity folder is even worse and is my downloads folder. Over 600 gigs in my downloads folders

Woah, that is crazy!! My computer only holds around 200 gigs :p

I have 2, 1 TB hard drives along with 2 500gig HDs on my desktop PC. My laptop has 1tb + I have around 5 portable drives I use. I have nearly filled it all up

LOL, that`s just crazy! My notebook has 250 gigs of storage and I still have over 130gb free. My home computer has 1tb, I only use 190 gig. My NAS server has 2tb and still has 600gigs free. However, that little server only serves movies and series. Oh and some audio. All organized obviously

I tend to delete everything I don`t use. Same goes for software and games. I regulary check my games folder, if there`s a game I see which I don`t play, it`s going out. Same for software. Now, I know what you`re thinking: "ahh this guy`s using reg cleaner stuff and so on." Well, I`m not. I just hate, read HATE all the frikkin folders. All the clicking. Forcing to read all the folders just to get that one specific folder, blegh. And this didn`t use to be the case. I once worked as a front end developer at this company right, and while I was working there, I also did freelance work. At that time, I had one working folder which happened to be the root dir for my server. So all my projects were stored right there. At any given time ( especially in the end) I had over 250 project folders. Now, imagine you had to copy some files from one project to another... The scrolling.. the horror...

Since that time, I started cleaning up, archiving finished projects, all organized by company/freelance and/or project. Works like a charm

Wow, thats a lot of folders! after I cleaned mine up, I freed around 25 GB, not a ton, but Ill take the extra space!
