Today there was a case where my colleague's system showed a Low Disk Space warning. I used Tree Size to investigate and found a file sc.user_paged.1.etl in the path C:\Users\<<YourUser>>\AppData\Local\Temp\PW that was almost 50 GB in size.
I did some research and found that this file is created by Visual Studio Standard Collector (StandardCollector.Service.exe) and discovered it's a bug in Visual Studio 2022. (Ref: Visual Studio Standard Collector stores a huge (80 GB) ETL trace)
For the solution, it can be fixed by following these steps:
- kill process StandardCollector.Service.exe
- manual delete file
sc.user_paged.1.etl
- Restart Computer
- Update Visual Studio 2022 to latest version
