My computer loses 1 or 2 GB per day when nothing if current download. What drains the GB? Documents and defining of a 2 GB file I can't find

If you look at the pie chart to JDiskReport, you should be able to click on the segment called 'Google' and get more details.  Individual files should also appear in the left pane.  Google itself shouldn't take up to 4 GB - use - you Google docs?

When you run JDiskReport and let it scan your whole drive (C:\), at the end of the scan there should be a box in the center of the pie chart giving the total amount of space used.  Is this the same amount shown as 'Space used' If you go to desktop, right-click on C:\ and select Properties?  Otherwise, what is the difference?

To see exactly what is on your drive, follow these steps:

Open disk management (start > run > diskmgmt.msc > OK).  You should see something like this.

The default view (shown in the screenshot linked) presents all the "volumes" in the upper pane and all the physical disks in the lower pane (view > Top > list of Volume and display > down > view graphic).

The computer shows the screenshot has two physical disks, labeled in the lower pane as disk 0 and disk 1.  There are 7 volumes (drives or partitions, or colloquially)--4 these volumes or disks are on the physical disk 0 and the other 3 are on the physical disk 1.  As you can see, Windows XP and Windows Vista are installed on this computer (in separate partitions).

With the exception of the rounding errors, if you add up all of the sections shown in each line in the lower pane, you will get the total physical capacity of the disk, also shown at the left end.

At this point, only look in disk management.  Don't be really something (like deleting something).
