Care to free some disk space?

After getting my MP5 player(i’ll tell you about it in an other post) which supports .flv playback i decided to search for a bulk youtube video downloader. I’ve tried various applications among which i tried Tube Sucker (link omitted deliberately) which is one dumb application(its design sucks also). (Click image to Enlarge)

Now really! a big LOL at that error message. Basically tubesucker didn’t allow me to install it because i had ONLY 2.7G disk space on C:\. What if i want to save the videos to D:\ where i had 60G’s free?

Man…what a dumb application. Anyway the “Windows needs a lot of free space to keep your machine working cleanly” message is hilarious. What does he mean by “working cleanly”? Does he mean that if i keep my hard drive empty my PC will clean itself? If so then i’ll go and delete some of the winDOS system files to free some space, those files are useless anyway.

Did you find this information helpful? Buy me a coffee.

    You’re right, it’s a lame program. It’s as if its installation files will take more than 2Gig of space. Well, I’m using Save2PCPro to download videos. SO far, haven’t encountered any problem with it.

    Heh. I use a software program called FolderSizes (http://www.foldersizes.com) to figure out where all the big multimedia files are hiding. When disk space gets low, all kinds of stupid things start happening.
