A technician is troubleshooting an issue on a PC that has low disk space. Which of the following Control Panel utilities should the technician most likely use to investigate and remediate the issue?
The Programs and Features utility allows users to view, modify, or uninstall applications that may be consuming excessive disk space. This is the best option when addressing low disk space issues.
A. Internet Options – Incorrect. This controls browser settings and has no impact on disk space.
B. System – Incorrect. System settings provide general system information but do not manage disk space.
D. Device Manager – Incorrect. Device Manager is used for managing hardware devices, not disk space.
Additional Troubleshooting Steps:
Use Disk Cleanup to remove temporary files.
Check the Downloads folder and delete unused files.
Move data to external or cloud storage.
