17 GB of invisible data seems to have moved between disks from one day to the next, with 10 additional GB removed F:.

Yesterday, I took measures to try to free as much space as possible, hoping to upgrade to Windows 10. When all was said and done (delete the old restore points, deleting old graphics driver installation files, etc.) my C: fell from 13.5 GB of free space to 27 GB, with orders F: to about 624 GB of free space. When I closed my computer for the night, I shut it down normally (ie. He would not download/install updates).

When I started again this morning, it starts normally (no not wrap updates began the last stop down), but when finished loading office there is a message in the Windows taskbar to say * fact * install the updates. Out of curiosity, I check my free space on both my drives and my C: went up to 10 GB of free space, with my F: in GB 645. The kicker? When I clear space yesterday, I took a glance at each weight (including hidden files) folder. Today when I did the same thing, nothing seemed out of the ordinary. In other words, each folder in C: root seem to occupy the same weight. I didn't even move anything from my C: to my F: when you try to free up space, I just deleted everything I wanted more.

Just to be sure, I went back and cleared again restore points, but he did exactly the same thing that happened yesterday: nothing. There was no progress bar and no space was saved. I also checked on Puran Defrag, but my C: earn barely any fragmentation, indeed, I've defragmented it yesterday. I've also already disabled the hibernation and removed the hibernation file earlier, which helped a little. On the other hand, this means that I have absolutely no idea whence this 17 Go invisible and how to get rid of.

Any help would be appreciated.

  • Why my network shares keep duplication in 'My Computer'? I have Y and Z mapped to 2 different actions. From one day to the next, I have B - Z mapped without my fault. What is going on?

    Hello! I can't understand what this does to my computer. It seems that something is automatically re-mapping my mapped network shares. How can I even begin to solve this?

    The last major change to my system were:
    1 - installed Norton Internet Security 2011 (anti-virus, etc.)
    2 - decided to play with indexing in the Panel but I didn't not add Y and Z to the index. I didn't change the file types that are indexed using this tab in the window and check each type of file in there
    3 installed MacDrive 8 so I could connect my Mac USB keys, etc. and use them locally on my PC
    Thanks in advance!

    It was Norton Ghost. Norton Ghost tried to access a directory in one of the actions, but I had changed the location of this directory. He just started mapping and re-mapping the same actions over and over again. Weird! Then I opened the ghost, clicked in the menu Tools, then Options, then changed to something else by default backup destination. It's strange, but it does. I had not used this in over a year backup destination and have resorted to a ghost. Phantom decided not to change the backup destination by default, when I deleted my old backup job 'task' and made a new who had another destination of backup. Weird.

    Thanks for your good help.

  • How do I export data from one day to backup disk.

    Hi all

    Here we have a requirement like, we need to download the data from one day to the external drive and we must compire the exported data and the data in the table.
    I googled and I have discovered that using expdp command we can export the table content, but my Question is how do I export data from one day. My table having 2 years of data and I need download the data of only one day.

    expdp scott/tiger@db10g tables = EMP, DEPT = TEST_DIR dumpfile = EMP_DEPT.dmp expdpEMP_DEPT.log = logfile directory

    Can someone tell me how to download data from one day to the table & compare data exported with the data in the table. (I know both exported and data of the table data will be the same that we are downloading data of the actual table, but for tests, I need to know how to compare).


    Thank you
    Sree

    However, I do not understand the scenario but here is a way to compare:
    (1) change the name of the table newly created in another name
    (2) import the exported file once again

    you will have the same data in both tables

  • I receive a "Low disk space" message and to free up space (d) car which seems full of backup files dating from when I got the laptop in 2008.

    I receive a "Low disk space" message and to free up space (d) car which seems full of backup files dating from when I got the laptop. Now I also have the message 'the last backup impossible' because I don't have enough space on this drive.  He had originally 110 GB Local disk (d :)) and it fell to 7.44 MB of free space.) Can I remove the back of the 'safeguards' located in the 3 files and start on the 17/04/2008 right up to 2011-01.05 and just keep the last backup or removing the back will cause problems? Can someone help thank you.

    Hi KarenRoss56,

    You can try to remove the old files of backup from 2008 to 2010 and check.

    Note: When you delete these files and later if you perform a restore, you will not be able to get previous data. If you need one of these files, you can transfer the files to an external drive before you delete the system files.

    You can also use Disk Cleanup to reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run more quickly.

    Hello

    I tried many combinations of the different pc in order to transfer files from one pc to the other and only max speed I have is from 4 to 10 Mbps.

    I use the switch/cat6 cables only the router is capable of 100 Mbps.

    Also, I connect the pc directly with cable and still the same speed.

    Win7 will get more than that and how?

    I read the other posts on this topic, but all patches are not applicable to me.

    I used various cables and switches and PCs in order to eliminate the possibility of a defective unit.

    Can you please help?

    Print my pdf files is no longer. After pressing PRINT the 'Print to File' window pops up and I have to press SAVE under to go to the next step. Once the pdf file is saved it is therefore more a pdf but a PRN file. An error message appears when I try to print the PRN file. I need to be able to print my original pdf files. Please notify.

    Looks like you somehow accidentally active the option print to file in the Advanced Options print dialogue. Uncheck that and this problem should go away.

  • I have a Setup dual monitor.  When I paste develop settings from one image to the other, Lightroom going on the active window.

    Strange problem.  5.5 Lightroom.  Windows 8.1. Setting up dual monitor.

    I am processing a lot important photos.  I have #1 monitor set as my main to develop the window with #2 monitor configured only to display a larger version of the image, I work with. If I copy the parameters of development out of a picture and try to paste them on another image, Lightroom will increase from the #1 to the monitor #2 monitor in the main window to develop and does not display anything on the monitor #1.

    If I then try to paste develop settings on another image on the monitor #2, LR then displays a larger version of the image, I have been working with the #1 monitor.

    To work like I want to, I have to constantly drag my develop the window back to the #1 monitor whenever I try to paste the settings on a new image of development. How can I make this stop?

    I have similar (but different) problems dual monitor. Just posted this on my thread unanswered. It may be useful:

    Blessed excrement! After frustrating months of bi-ecrans LR questions and a month of waiting for an answer on this forum, I called Adobe technical support. Only five minutes before dialing, I had updated my PhotoShop CC application. When the useful Adobe tech classmate is online, I can't reproduce all the issues that had been plaguing me. It is a stretch... a biiiiig stretch... but he is feels/figure/seems that PhotoShop CC update has fixed my bi-ecrans LR problems! I'll keep track of what other programs I use and open while LR - ing to see if they are relaxing, but for now, everything is quite in front of two monitors.

  • Please can someone me re-install Photoshop Elements 8? I seem to have an unreadable disk.

    I recently had to replace the hard drive on my Mac. Since this change, I was not able to pull up my Photoshop Elements 8. He gave me a warning saying something about the serial number is not valid. I contacted Adobe once before, but their line was too high and that they were too busy and asked me to come another time back. In the meantime I uninstalled photoshop elements from my computer hoping to re - install and fix the problem. The problem now is that my installation disc is not recognized by my computer. Is it because it must be installed on a computer, or could there be a problem with my drive? I need this program for my Home Business and I'd appreciate any help you can offer.
