  Original title: hard drive partition

  Why does windows partition hard disk of 500 GB so that 60 GB fills the drive c, then d ' drive is empty (295 GB free)?

  It depends entirely on the Installer Windows at your partition layout described no.1 is not standard.

  By default on a totally blank disk Windows 7 installation will create two partitions. A system reservedMB 100 partition which will not have any drive letter and is not normally visible on computer. The rest of the disk will be the operating system.

  Your drive C is 60GB because someone chose her for this size. It seems that if the computer has been upgraded, 60 GB would have been appropriate for Windows XP.

• WinSxS swallow all my server storage space and fill C:Drives causing unstable Windows

  Hey there, I got a small cut of data center where we have virtualized 10.  Which most is Server 2008 standard with 4 x x64Bit version.

  I thought about creating a 75GB C partition would be more than enough space.  After about 9 months of use of torque with a 64 bit OS and Exchange 2010, I was up to 5 GB space on my C drive.  Fortunately, I had a load of spare to park my Exchange .edb files to remedy the problem of the lack of storage SAN.

  What MS is going to deal with this problem.  I'm lucky, I can just use extra storage space and make a difference.  What of those who pay for hosted solutions / storage.  This eventually cost them much more they may have planned to even if they copy actually that much data on the server.

  Surely MS will come out as its eems to be a cleaning tool or a patch to stop this issue more and more out of control.  Nobody seems to have a decent solution for this.  Woe to anyone brave enough to just go and delete files to free up space.

  Any ideas or advice greatly appreciated.

  Looking forward to hear from you.

• System Restore fills hard drive

  I used Windows XP Home Edition for years, with no problems.  However, in recent weeks, I noticed my hard drive filling up at a rate of almost 1 G new data per day.  I didn't add all the new programs, so I suspected a Virus or a Trojan.  I use Avast Anti-virus and keep SpyBot and SpywareBlaster running and updated.  I ran full scans with these programs and found no problem.  I even downloaded a copy of AVG anti-virus and done a scan with it problems... No..  Then, I came across a program called 'TreeSize' who did a real good job to tell me what's really on the hard drive.  BIINGO!  It seems that my system restore file increases by nearly 1 G per day.  I had about 2 months, control in the system restore points, so I changed the settings about 25 g and lost most of my restore points... AND, my hard disk capacity has increased almost 20 g.

  Windows has changed something in the month last about restoring the operating system?  I've never seen this phenomenon until just last month.  Now that I know what is eating my hard disk space, I can recover easily, but I think something has changed recently to cause this.  The ONLY thing I added to my files in the month were updates of Windows.

  Even after many years, I have only about 20 G on my hard drive, so it was unusual when I started to see the volume of data up to 40 G.  This just started about 3 or 4 weeks... and I did not install new programs.

  Now that I put the restore settings to 25G, I saw no repetition of this 'growth' in the past 2 or 3 days... so time will tell if this fixed my "whim".

  As I said, you must set SR to 1 GB... No 25 GB.

  I guess the sentence I have in bold above means that you have a separate partition for your data.  You don't need restore the system monitor this partition (disc) at all.  Retrieves a few pieces of Bert K site linked in my previous post (emphasis added):

  • System Restore monitors changes to the system and saves the State of the system as a restore point.
  • System Restore does not restore user data or documents, so it will not cause users to lose their files, email, browsing history or Favorites.
  • System Restore monitors and restores a set of file system and application, the States of these files before the change of the archiving system. System Restore also records a snapshot of the registry (Note: some current registry values will persist) and some dynamic system files.
  • Files that are monitored or excluded from the monitoring are specified in the file % windir%\system32\restore\Filelist.xml.
  • To restore a system, System Restore undoes file changes made to the files monitored, taking over the State of the file at a time of the restore point selected. It replaces the current registry with one registered for the selected restore point.

  If indeed you watched a "data disc" and it was the system restore on this drive that increased, it seems that if one of the applications, which stores the data on this disk does not respect the following recommendations:

  • To make sure that your application has the behavior desired after a restore, follow these steps:
    • Be sure to use the extensions compatible with those used in the Filelist.xml file binary application key to protect. For more information, see Monitoring of file Extensions.
    • Do not use controlled types of extensions for files modified by the user. For example, if you name the file of personal data of a user using the .ini extension, the user may lose work because of a system restore.

• Windows fill my drive with unwanted files

  For some time, Windows had filled my backup disk free Agent with unwanted files. 26 files - 7 are unwanted with names such as 20ade068cc166aebf2. Despite everything I do, I can't erase those files even if I change the attributes or run cleaning tools...

  Some have dozens of folders with 4 digits, while others have Windows service pack setup programs. Two of them have locked the reported amd64 and i386 folders. I see no reason why they should be cluttering this removable drive - or why they should multiply.

  Can someone tell what they are, what causes them and how to get rid of them?

• The process of filling Adobe drive

  For the last two days, I noticed that the AdobeGCClient.exe process has worked to a constant of 13% of the CPU usage.  At the same time my boot drive has filled up, from 115 GB of free space of 5 GB of free space.  I found several files in my folder of C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Temp as "adobegc 25/09/2015 21-09 - 41.log.  Some are more than 6 GB in size.  I deleted all the and restarted the computer, but the files began to appear again.  I manually stop the AdobeGCClient.exe process and log files stopped accumulating.  What is this process, and why has he suddenly started to fill up my hard drive?  I used CC for a long time and never had this problem before.

• Unique virtual MACHINE fills physical drive twice the size of the virtual disk allocated

  I have a VMware workstation 8 that is configured with a 600GO of (non-allocated in advance) disc. Workstation 8 is running on Server 2008 R2. The virtual machine has filled a 1.28 TB drive full of files hard VMware with the naming convention "VIRTUAL_MACHINE_NAME-000001 - s001.vmdk" that increments until completely to "VIRTUAL_MACHINE_NAME-000014 - s301.vmdk.

  I also have 14 snapshots. What I find interesting is that I have 14 snapshots and then my files hard increment from 000001 to 000014, so I kind of think that each snapshot file (.vmem) is attached to each set of files hard. Before delete those associated with the shots that I need is no longer, I wanted to check that they are in fact attached together.

  My proposed remedy strategy would be a snapshot of delete (say 12) and delete all the files in VIRTUAL_MACHINE_NAME-000012 - sxxx.vmdk.

  I understand this well, that doesn't sound like it will work?

  Welcome to the community,

  I understand this well, that doesn't sound like it will work?

  No, never remove all hard files manually!

  The snapshots see you in the Snapshot Manager associated with the files (00000 x) and once you delete a snapshot in the Snapshot Manager, the data in these files are merged into their parent folder. For example if you delete snapshot 9, data will be merged in 8 snapshot, so most probably more these snapshot files. If you want to save disk space, you must delete the snapshots starting with the left-(closest to the basic disk).

• can I install programs on one physical drive other than the drive that contains the operating system Vista

  My hard drive crashed and I didn't do a reinstall full Vista no problem here other than do not pay attention, I installed the operating system on one 80 GB disk other than the new 320 gig which was. After the new facility and all new updates, I have 25 GB of free space. I would like to know if I can install new programs on my drive d: and no filling of drive c: for the ability

  Hello

  Thanks for posting this question in the Microsoft Community Forums.

  I see you want to know if you can install programs on a drive with no operating system.

  I wish to inform you that this is possible with only specific programs, which give the user an option to choose where the program is installed.

  When a program is installed, it runs in program files, which lies in the operating system drive and can not be moved elsewhere.

  Another reference:

  Microsoft does not support changing the location of the program files

• SeaTools-BACK does not detect my hard drive, how I should zero my HDD now?

  Hi all!
  I use SeaTools for DOS for many years to fill the hard drive of my old ancient PC from scratch and never has a problem. However, today when I had zero fill the Momentus ST9500325AS 500 GB SATA laptop 1 year, I got to know that the last SeaTools for DOS can not find a controller to read my hard drive. My laptop has Intel HM67 chipset. As the 'last' SeaTools BACK has been updated in 2011, I understand very well that Seagate does not update the tool to add the controller of my chipset. So all I want to ask is, how do I zero fill my drive now? Should I go for some other tools? Are they reliable? Please suggest some good I knew that nothing else than seatools for zero fill.
  Thank you for your help

  Hi Satyam,

  Formatting zeros is a comprehensive method of wiping a disk storage. When formatting a storage drive deletes data on the surface, the data can still be recovered until it is replaced. Formatting the storage disk wipes zeros, replaces the data deleted by a series of zeros and then wipe the drive again to make recovery of data beyond the civil means. Zeros of formatting is usually done to hard disk drives and flash drives can also benefit from the method.

  We can refer to this article and check if that helps.

• Scratch disk on drive C.

  Hi all

  I'm having a problem with PS CC2014 on a machine pro Win7 64 bit with 32 GB of Ram and 6 hard drives (SSD for the OS and applications, another two SSD for zero and one for storage - the mechanical drives are for storage and backup).

  My problem is the scratch disk file does not devote drive even if it is assigned in the prefs, instead it goes in C: > users > [name of computer] > AppData > Local > Temp > I'm working on very large images (digital art hand drawn) @280x120cm @200ppi (22047 x 9449 pixels) and space is running on C :

  PS tells me the scratch disk is full and I can not open extra files - economy seems ok (for now)... Any ideas what's happening? I work on Pro work I don't need this issue.

  In you preferences, you must remove C: in the list of drives to work or move location in the list to be the last in the list. Photoshop it will fill with drive working fist before moving on the next drive to work.  Photoshop also uses user on the C: drive space when it creates a temporary file for ASR and the temporary file created when you reopen the layer to smart object.  So even if you delete C: in the list of Scratch Disk Photoshop will use the space on your C: drive for temporary files.   If you are running windows do not use Photoshop if your startup disk is low on free space.

• Location of the Alienware 17 SSD drive?

  I own an Alienware 17 that I bought in January this year.  It came with an SSD of 256 MB.  That I found woefully inadequate for my purposes.  I'm at the clean temporary files every day so that I do not fill the drive.  I bought a new 1 TB Samsung SATA III SSD, but I can't find where the current SSD is installed.  There are two ports for HDD1 and HDD2 which are easily accessible.  I've added two 1 TB drives to these two, but I have no idea where the SSD is without tearing the laptop all out to find.  I watched the reference owners manual and there IS NO remove OR replace the SSD drive?

• AUDIT OF MAC

  Is anyone know how can I test my Mac?

  Is there a software that makes a control software such as checking the HDD for any bad sector, etc...?

  It is preferable to describe the functional problem, if you have one, as long as detail as much information as possible, rather than saying what you think is the cause or the way you think it should be resolved.

  If you do not have a problem, please see below.

  How to maintain a Mac

  Do two or more backups of all your files

  A backup is not enough to be sure. A copy of a backup does not count as another backup. all backups should be made directly from original data.

  Keep at least one backup offsite disaster at any time. Backup to a cloud service - data is a way to meet this need, but do not exclusively rely on these backups.

  In fact, do not rely on any single backup method, such as Time Machine.

  If you get an indication that a backup has failed, don't ignore it.

  Keep your software up to date

  In the software update preferences or window of the App Store (according to the version of the OS), you can configure automatic notifications of updates to OS X and other Mac App Store products. Some third-party applications from other sources have a similar feature, if you don't mind leaving their home phone. Otherwise, you need to check yourself on a regular basis.

  Update is particularly important for complex software which modifies the operating system, such as device drivers. Do not install the necessary modifications, unless they are absolutely necessary. Remove them when they are no longer needed. Before you install any update from Apple, you must verify that all changes to the system that you are using are compatible. Incompatibility with third-party software is by far the most common cause of the difficulties with the system updates.

  Do not install any crapware

  .. .such as "themes," "haxies, '"Add-ons,"" toolbars, ""enhancers,""optimizers","accelerators", 'boosters', 'extensions', 'cleaners', 'doctors', 'tune-up,'"defragmenters', 'firewall', 'barriers', "guardians", "defenders", "protectors", most 'plugins', 'antivirus', 'disk tools' or 'utilities '. With a few exceptions, this stuff is useless or worse than useless. Above all, avoid any software that is supposed to change the look and feel of the user interface.

  He is not much of an exaggeration to say that the "utility" software industry everything for the Mac is a fraud on consumers. The most extreme examples are the "CleanMyMac', 'TuneUpMyMac', and"MacKeeper"scams, but there are many others.

  As a general rule, you should avoid software that transform the way in which other works of software. Plugins for Photoshop and similar programs are an obvious exception to this rule. The Mac App Store has extensions for the Photos app, and perhaps others, who need to be secured. Safari extensions and maybe the equivalent for other web browsers, are a partial exception. Most are safe, and they are easy to get rid of if they do not work. Some may cause the browser to crash or otherwise malfunctioning. Some are malicious. Use with caution and only install the extensions known relatively reliable sources, such as the Gallery of Safari Extensions.

  Only use software that does something for you - not (as can imagine you) for the computer. A text editor, a photo editor and a game are examples of software that does something for you. A "cache cleaner" or a "malware scanner" does nothing for you. You buy a computer, then you might clean caches.

  Never install third party software unless you know how to uninstall. Otherwise, we can create problems that are very difficult to solve. Don't rely on "utility" as "AppCleaner" designed to remove software.

  Do not install not bad, contradictory or unnecessary fonts

  Whenever you install a new font, use the validation of the application book feature policies integrated to ensure that the fonts are not defective and do not collide with each other or with other people you already. See the built-in Help and support article for instructions.

  Disable or remove the fonts that you really need not to speed up the launch of applications.

  Avoid malware

  "Malware" is a malware that circulates on the Internet. This kind of attack on OS X was once so rare that it was almost a matter of concern, but it is now more common than dangerous.

  There is a built-in protection against malicious software, but you can't count on it, the attackers are still at least a day before the defense. You cannot rely on "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" product third for protection no more. The only security lies in safe computing practices. The "anti-virus" industry will always try to convince you that you are powerless to protect you from malicious software attacks, unless you use its products. You are not powerless - rather than the industry is powerless to protect you, just as it is powerless to protect Windows and Android users, whose platforms are infested by malware despite the fact that they spend $75 billion a year on the software "anti-virus".

  Never install software from an unknown or untrusted source. If in doubt, do the research.

  Any website that invites you to install a "codec" or "plugin" that comes from the same site or to an unknown site, is untrustworthy.

  A stranger on a website which is strangely eager to run a free app and won't take to a response, it is not trustworthy. What is in it for him?

  Software that does not come from the Mac App Store, such as Adobe Flash Player, must come directly from the Web site. No intermediary is acceptable and do not trust links unless you know how to analyze them.

  Any file that is automatically downloaded from the web, without your consent, should go straight into the trash.

  A web page that tells you that your computer has a "virus", or anything else wrong with it, is a scam.

  In OS X 10.7.5 or later, download applications and install packages that have not been digitally signed by a developer registered with Apple are blocked by default loading. The block can be overridden, but think carefully before do you.

  Due to security problems recurring in Java, it has better disable it in your web browser, if it is installed. Some sites contained Java these days, so you don't miss much. This action is required if you are running any version of Mac OS X more 10.6.8 with Java was last updated. Note: Java has nothing to do with JavaScript, despite the similar names. Do not install Java unless you don't know that you need. Most of the people don't.

  Do not fill your drive or SSD

  A common mistake is to add more large files in your home folder until you start getting warnings that you are out of space, which can be followed in short order a boot failure. It is more likely to occur on recent Macs that come with an internal SSD instead of the conventional hard drive. The disk may be nearly complete before becoming aware of this problem.

  If it is not true that you should or must keep any percentage of free space, you must monitor your storage usage and make sure that you are not in immediate danger of use upward. According to the documentation from Apple, you need at least 9 GB of free space on the boot to normal volume.

  If the available storage space is insufficient, use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeperto explore volume and discover which occupies more space. Move infrequently used large files to secondary storage.

  Relax, do not

  In addition to the above, no maintenance is necessary or advantageous for the vast majority of users; specifically not "cleaning the caches," "zap the PRAM," "reset the SMC," "reconstruction of the directory,'"defragment the drive,""periodic scripts running,""dumping newspapers,' "delete temporary files", "searching for viruses," 'memory purge', 'check' bad blocks, "test hardware" or "repair permissions". These measures are either useless or are useful only to solve problems, not for prevention.

  To effectively use a Mac, you must get out of the mentality of Windows that each computer needs regular downtime maintenance such as 'defrag' and 'registry cleaning. These concepts do not apply to the Mac platform.

  A well-designed computing device is not something you should think about a lot. There should be an almost transparent medium through which communicate you, work and play. If you want a machine that needs a lot of attention just to continue, use a PC, or collect classic cars.

  The height of futility runs a third-party application expensive called "Disk Warrior" when everything is going well, or even when something goes wrong and you have backups, you must have. Warrior disc is a data-recovery tool, not a maintenance tool, and you won't ever need if your backups are adequate. Don't waste money on it or something like that.

• Satellite A500 - game starts only when you run fraps

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satelite A500 with an i5, nvidia GT330M with 4 GB of RAM card, I only use drivers for toshiba and in dead rising 2 there are some significant slowdowns tried

  Patches as rename the dead rising2.exe etc., it did not work, I play my resolution 1366 x 768 and with shadows and zombies at the top with 16 AF, leaving the vertical sync, sampling and blur to the broad, the game is full of similar slowdowns trolling (character begins to run slowly).
  More funny thing is that when I recorded with fraps (lock the framerate on) I can play smoothly with no slowdowns at all, I even tested and set of 4 complete (AA) and turned on the vertical sync and the game was playable with no slowdowns on very large crowds of zombies, when I play normally without stil fraps recording, when the game slows down Press f9 for fraps to start recording and the game starts immediately

  Race "smooth", fraps makes very large files and in a short time it would fill my drive, the program limits setting I tried but delays were still present:-no opinion on this subject or

  possible correction for the game?

  Hi fiurion,

  Very strange what s... To be honest I never heard tell that it is only possible to start the game when you run fraps...

  You have installed an antivirus or firewall program that could block the start of the game?

  Also I recommend that you install the latest version of DirectX and display driver.

• Received a phone call that is supposed to come from Microsoft Help Desk all downloaded on my computer junk files! Is it a scam?

  I got an unexpected phone call this morning. The man at the other end is said to Microsoft Help Desk. He said he had an urgent problem with my computer. He said that, as part of the automatic updates download, my computer had downloaded some unwanted files likely to damage my computer. He said that the files would fill my drive causing my computer to grind to a halt and also undermine my security software, leaving my computer vulnerable to attacks. He wanted to sit in front of my computer and he would talk to me through fixing it. I did apologize and hung up. I now had two of these calls.

  The sounds of all of this as a scam to me! I have no way of verifying that this person has been Microsoft at all, and I can't imagine Microsoft never call someone at home like that. I guess it was someone trying to access my computer for criminal purposes. I couldn't find anything on the web site of Microsoft to think there was no truth in what in told me.

  Can anyone offer me any advice?
