Hard drive filling up abnormally

Hello,

To free up disk space, you can start with a Windows cleanup:
Windows key + R
Type cleanmgr
Perform the cleanup.

Then, follow this tutorial: how to free up disk space on Windows
From the link, use WindirStat to visualize what is taking up disk space abnormally and clean up accordingly.
Try to determine what is taking up abnormally large disk space with WindirStat.

Some points to check mentioned in the link:

• Clean up with the Windows cleanup program and free up disk space in the Windows folder: How to reduce the size of the Windows folder
• Check for misconfigurations, System Restore, Antivirus, etc...
• Presence of the windows.old folder following a Windows 10 update or a reset
• See if you have videos or other items that are also taking up space

It is important to use the WindirStat program to see what might be taking up space; feel free to take a screenshot if needed.

From now on, I'm leaning more towards a virus because the hard drive space is increasing rapidly. So if anyone can help me with a virus issue, I would be glad.

If you haven't bought Fortinet, uninstall it.

Here is the fix to perform with FRST. You can refer to this explanatory note with screenshots.
Restart FRST and then press CTRL + Y on your keyboard.
The notepad will open, copy/paste this.
