Why is my server running out of space, why is it all in a directory called PCHealth, and what the #@*&!~ is PChealth anyway?!!

Problem:

A folder called PCHealth takes up large amounts of disk space, especially when an application generates lots of errors.

  1.  
    1. Go to System Properties > Advanced tab > Error Reporting button.
    2. select Disable Error Reporting radio button
