Do you crash TF2 a lot? Might wanna check this.

[A Boojum Snark]

I had an inkling feeling my space was falling into some black hole I couldn't locate...
Then I discovered that today after noticing a defrag hanging on one of them for a long time (meaning it's big). I've never turned on full memory dumps and I had no idea it was making them. I just know I crash TF2 a lot with the weird things I do, and sometimes it takes forever to actually exit, now I know why.

Might wanna check yours

Thank you so much! I didn't have enough space to install a new game, I had no idea what was happening...

you did untill i delete 20gb's of stuff out of the dump folder on my main set up and 4gb's from my laptop

What exactly are these files for?

 

[A Boojum Snark]

They are memory dumps for debugging. The exact contents of the RAM that the given application was using at the time of the crash.

Though a picture technically doesn't prove anything, as I could have just deleted everything, THEN taken the picture.

I did actually have nothing in the folder though.

 

[Acumen]

me neither. that's what you get for not playing tf2 all day long but just start it for testing reasons
