I keep getting an error on a PC when I try to run the defrag saying that my 
Recovery Partition only has 10% space and that it needs 15 % to run.
I have searched the net and foune a solution to stop the message but to me this is not a fix.
I want to clean out any rubbish and had a look but can't see any unwanted files, but then don't really know what to look for.
Do I just leave alone or is there somethng I can do.

Why are you trying to DeFrag your Recovery Partition? Leave it alone.
Concentrate on the C drive. 0 -
I wasn't purposely trying to. I was just running the defrag as normal and it just came up saying unable to defrag as recovery Partition d drive only has 10% space and it needs 15% do I want to continue anyway.TopCashback £1792.63My Little World0

I just want to clean it so that I can do a full defrag - or does it not matter that I can'tTopCashback £1792.63My Little World0 -
As Donnie has already said, just concentrate on your C:\ drive. You don't need to defrag the recovery partition.:doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:0

You 'right click' on the C: drive and run the DeFrag from there. No need to involve the drive. 0
