Solve : Hard Drive space problem? |
|
Answer» I realized on my computer that after installing several programs and software I only have 48 free GB of hard drive space. My computer has a total of 288 gb usable on my hard drive, I have about 70 gb of music, a game whic is about 35 gb and several pictures and documents which ADD up to 4 gb. I recently had about 114 gb of music, but deleted about 42 gb since, however the music folder still reads 114 gb. Even with the extra music though I should still have more free space. If anyone knows the story behind this I'm listening. however the music folder still reads 114 gb. Even with the extra music though I should still have more free space. If anyone knows the story behind this I'm listening. What are you using for a music programme that would want 114gb ? That's not RIGHT unless you have just shy of 30,000 songs on your system.

Do you mean Games?Well the music folder includes all of my itunes library which is only about 14 gb of music the rest is video, sorry I meant to specify. But I have since deleted about 42 GB of Audio/video FILES, and it still reads 114GB The Game I have itself is only 1.4GB but I have over the course of the last year added about 30 gb of add ons from different gaming download sites. It's a thirdwire game, and the website Combatace.com is where the downloads are from ThanksOk we need to CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN! First off download ccleaner and use, its safe and good. Then we will look at the rest.. sorry just do this step by step with me and we will sort it out. you may want to open up COMMAND prompt (go to the start menu search box, type CMD and press enter when it finds CMD) and run the chkdsk/r command to see if there's any error on your computer's hard drive Thanks everyone I'll try this and get back to you asapHard drive space doesn't work like 2+2=4.... Besides folders, we have page file, hibernation file, etc. etc.and VOLUME shadow copies, system restore checkpoints....well I tried the disk check, and ran ccleaner. It freed about 3gb so good start I guess. Thanks |
