Just head into System, hit up System Protection, and click configure. It won't mess with your OS or any of your files. Just set it to somewhere between 5 and 10 GB. That should do the trick.

Yeah, figured that's where those gigabytes were hiding.
Just do what Larry Ortiz5 said. Shrink that System Restore space. You even bother defragging your drive?

Just grab WinDirStat. It’ll show you exactly which folders are eating up your hard drive space.

Larry Ortiz5 said:I've seen those torrent sites adding updates too, but they always throw in a bunch of random junk programs you didn't ask for, and I hate that. I want a clean, untouched version of Windows 7 just like your link. My rig is decent and my internet speed is solid, but waiting two or three hours for all those updates to crawl through installation is a massive pain. This would make life way easier. If they keep updating their pages with the latest 2015 patches, I'm definitely hitting them up next time I need to do a fresh install. 👍

I thought the guy had given up, but here he is with the January integrated updates. Seriously saves a ton of time.

So this is basically like this site, except they threw in some updates and IE 11 in this ISO. One more thing though—does this page actually stay current? Like, do they bother updating the Windows update dates every once in a while?

They used to stay on top of it back when The Pirate Bay was still a thing. Today is Patch Tuesday for January. I'll check back in a few days to see if they've added today's update.

If it wasn't for that, I'd be screwed since crazy Bill doesn't even offer OS downloads. Now the update queue is sitting at 190 installs. Windows is built so stupidly that instead of updating incrementally, it tries to grab everything at once, chokes, and then you're stuck reinstalling. My PC has been spinning its wheels on this crap for 10 hours and there's still 150 left. Did those idiots not think to bundle updates into groups of 20 or 50? It's unbelievable they've been selling this garbage for 30 years and it's still the most popular thing out there.

You can grab Windows with all the updates already integrated right here. You'll just have to figure out the serial and activation on your own.
