Low Disk Space Message Killer1.0

"Low disk space" messages were implemented by Microsoft to notify users when their computers are running low on disk space on the primary partition where Windows is installed (typically C:).

How "Low disk space" alerts work

Moving or deleting files to make room for new data is necessary not only for personal files but also for the operating system, which requires free space to continue working within normal parameters and to ensure reliability.These messages regularly pop up from the system tray (notification area on the bottom-right corner of the screen) when you have only 200MB, 80MB and 50MB free space remaining.For example, if you have below 80MB left, it will not be possible to run System Restore. When you reach the 50MB threshold, System Restore will stop monitoring the PC because there isn't enough free disk space available.
