check if shadow copies is enabled on the server, that will keep loads of file versions. Also look at the updates folders under windows folder which keeps the rollback files for all updates done, if you do not need to rollback any recent updates you may delete all those files and leave only the most recent ones.

<br>> I'd recommend downloading
WinDirStat (<a href="http://windirstat.net/" target="_blank">windirstat.net</a>).
It's a useful tool for checking disk space. You may find that
it's exchange log files that are taking up most of the space. The best way
to handle them is to enable windows server backup (an exchange plugin which
removes those exchange log files after they're backed up).

All the best.

<br>> Hi everyone
<br>>
<br>> This is Gina from Bujumbura asking for help.
<br>>
<br>> We have
a Exchange system running on a DAG with 3 servers members. A few days ago I got
the C drive of one of the servers growing with no reason. The databases are
located on a different drive D: drive.I tried to look at every single folder and
file to see what is filling that drive. I did not find any solution. With the
different forums i did not get any answer to this. Note that We have a Kaspersky
Antivirus running.Please give me a help and orientation on this. We are running
in Vmware environment and on Windows Server 2008.
