The only reason you could lose space is corruption in the Master File Table, and the only fix is to reformat your disk you can't delete space from your hard drive unless you replace it with a smaller one.
If you are asking about what happens if you choose to "wipe" or "delete" the free space, that just means that the free space is overwritten. You would overwrite unallocated space for privacy and confidentiality reasons. Since that is free space, no harm would occur if it were overwritten. Now, if you have an SSD drive, then you'd do better to Trim the drive, since that would reformat any previously used but unallocated blocks without adding unnecessary wear to the drive.

They stay on the computer, but the space they used is marked as being free to be used by other files. So as you create new files and save other files, they will start to use the space where the deleted files are, and eventually they will be completely overwritten. Because they are still there, this is why it is still possible to get some deleted files back if you try to do so soon after they are deleted. The more time you leave the more likely it is that the space they are in will be used by other files, making it impossible to get them back.
It is used to reuse the space from deleted files for new files, if it is possible. System contains a free space list that holds the list of free spaces in disk...
File recovery software is able to work because when files are deleted, they aren't actually deleted from the hard drive. The deleted files are put into free space on the computer, so as long as there have not been files saved over them they are retrievable by file recovery software that can access this free space.
For most computer styles you can figure this out by looking in "My Computer"
Yes, if your computer is working properly, you will have more free space.
Nowhere, when a picture is deleted all the computer does is mark the space that the picture used as "free". This means it can be overwritten. Provided it has NOT be overwritten, there are tools/way of recovering the picture if you know what you are doing.
You may not be a computer administrator, however sometimes you can still do one. Your computer may not need a defragment. Your computer does not have enough free space. Computers need about 15% of space to be free before you can defragment.
if you're talking about for your computer, it clears up space for you. It combines like items so you have more free space to save items and more free space to have your computer run faster.

If by "Cleaning up" you mean "deleting data" then space Will free up.Defragging or "Checking Disk" will not create free space.
