Checking disk I discovered a folder c:\Users\...\Temp\imgMnt01 with size 10Gb, see here:

It looks like the image of an entire disk Win7+C:, probably in conjunction with NTlite, I used a long time ago.
I suppose, if the Temp directory is not needed for running os.
But it is not delete in any way: no programs like Unlocker, or MoveOnBoot, etc. Even in safe mode.
I have admin rights, I am the only one on this PC.
What to do? I cannot find any procedure, consult someone with a similar experience?
Thanks for the advice

Looks like its and old mount point.
Open up an Admin Command Prompt and type in
Code:
dism /get-MountedWiminfo

It might say something, or show something that is invalid.
even if it does not try

Code:
dism /cleanup-wim

this will force remove any mount points

That particular directory is deceiving. Even though it is a temp folder, it often holds files that the system is currently using.

Go ahead and try Dahak's suggestion first.

Just remember, it's a small jpg. If you are having space issues, this one file is not going to make any difference.

Might want to read the op (again?).
