It can mean a number of things. It could mean you are not emptying your recycle bin. Or the files you deleted are still in use, or are waiting on something to finish deleting. In some cases, it could mean the disk tables have errors in them, and you need to run CHKDSK, Scandisk, or a similar disk checking utility. Or maybe you haven't refreshed the screen. Or in some cases, the space did free up, but something else is filling the space (temp files, browser cache, or a file-sharing program downloading files).

How do you free up disk space in windows 7?

A good way to free up disk space is to run the windows disk clean up utility by going to "start" and in the search bar type in disk cleanup. Run it and delete all of the files it asks you want to delete. Also you can run the Disk Defragmenter utility to move files around to better places on your computer.

We can cut the bad space on our computer by using Disk defragmentor or the Diskcleanup wizard! Disk defragmentor helps in organising the disordered files and cleaning up much of the space. It adds up to the speed too. Disk cleanup wizard on the other hand would ask you what to delete from the system. They can be the useless Recycle Bin contents or the temperory internet files. Hence it deletes whatever you give to delete and thus cleaning up much useless stuff!
