Space on the hard disk drive

a total of my player = 35 GB, used real = 22 gb but by taking its properties it shows not used space is26gb. Recycle bin space is fixed to 700 MB. How can I get the full space

Space is probably absorbed by the files hidden as temporary/Temporary Internet Files, etc. To show hidden files in XP (in Folder Options View tab), there are four boxes to treat:

a. check "display the contents of system folders".
b. check "show files and folders.
c. uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types".
d. uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and click "OK" to the dialog box.

In addition, you can use a free utility like TreeSize Free to see where the space is being taken up.

  • Satellite A215-S7422: free space on the HARD disk decreases every day

    Hello everyone,

    Hi I'm alex.

    I've owned a computer laptop "SATELLITE A215-S7422.
    I got 147 GB of my hard disk drive memory, I got 119 free space but as I noticed it is constantly down even if I do not download anything.

    When I saw this first I try to get it back to the factory setting and I had 128 GB of free space, and every day it is significantly down.

    Everything I do is look at you tube.

    Can someone explain to me what is happening and what I can do about it...

    It would be much appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hello

    There is a simple explanation why HARD disk space decreases each time while watching Youtube videos
    The video stream is always stored on the HARD drive in the internet files folder and in time.

    So from time to time, it would be desirable to remove these files and to clean the folder of files over time.
    I use the CCLeaner. It is free software and can be downloaded from different pages. Google simply
    This program is very useful. It cleans the HARD drive and removes the garbage all registry.

    You should test.

  • Equium P200D - Question about running out of space on the HARD disk

    First of all, let me say that I am a Silver Surfer and don't know much about how works laptop or where it stores information!
    I don't am not in the least HI - TEC so please be gentle with me.

    I use an older Equium P200d for 1 year with two 40 GB hard drives each.
    My C drive has only 2 GB of memory left available while my E drive still has 30 GB.

    I have only 3.7 GB of programs loaded (according to the research of control panel) and I know that I have 4 GB of music.

    My query is - where is the other 30 GB missing?

    I made the Scandisc option and deleted all the stuff from there and a defragmentation procedure.

    Y at - it searches I can run to find junk I have more need?

    Any advice you can offer would be appreciated.

    Hey Buddy

    If you are using Vista, then you should consider that Vista creates an additional partition on the HARD drive.
    It s hidden and it contains backup files in order to repair the operating system if something goes wrong.

    In addition HARD drive must also contain HARD drive recovery files (image).
    These files are required to recover the laptop HARD drive.

    So the hidden partition and the recovery of HARD drive that could be the main reason why you noticed smaller amount of space available on the HARD disk

    See you soon

  • Cannot access the HARD disk drive HARD - Satellite P300 recovery

    Hi all

    I want to perform a Toshiba product recovery, using the partition on the HARD disk. I did it before and no problem.

    But when I press F8--> computer repair--> selection language--> then I have to select a user (Administrator / my name/guest) when I select the administrator, it says that my account has been disabled, when I select the user with my name (Kenneth) he continues to the menu where I can choose the different options for recovery. If I select the product Toshiba blah blah thingy a screen comes up saying it can't find 01 HARD drive. I did nothing with the partition containing Vista.

    My guess is that I need to log in as an administrator, which is impossible. My user account in Vista is a Director,

    Can someone please?

    I use a P300

    Best regards
    Kenneth

  • Windows 7 is my CD/DVD in the hard disk drive

    The original hard disk drive has been damaged, and I replaced it the installation a professional version of windows 7, 32 bit.

    I used prior to windows Vista, and everything worked very well. now, with Windows 7 can not format my drive CD/DVD or CD/DVD read/write.

    I tried before solving the problem using Microsoft Fix it but failed.

    Please, I need your help!

    OK what I mean try, reboot your system with the Windows cd again and see if your dvdrwe drive cannot read the disc. Unfortunately, you can have a bad disk but before ruling out, you need to do some troubleshooting steps more. Did you try and install your DVD - RW drive on another pc will exclude both software and hardware, or if you can install another drive on your pc. Good luck

    Hello

    (1) what antivirus program do you use?

    (2) version of Windows do you use?

    (3) have you made no changes before this problem?   I suggest you try these methods and check.

    Method 1:

    Delete files using disk cleanup.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/delete-files-using-disk-cleanup

    Method 2:

    I suggest you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.
    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Important: While running scan on the hard drive if bad sectors are found on the hard drive when scanning try to repair this area if all available on which data may be lost.

    Method 3:

    Check a drive for errors.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/check-a-drive-for-errors

  • Waste of space on the hard disk on the Satellite C650 - 15 X

    Hello

    I found a problem on my laptop Toshiba Satellite C650-15 X (almost new), I bought several months ago. It has a drive hard 500 GB volume in 2 partitions: C and D-with 250 GB each; and Windows 7 Premium 64-bit operating system.

    There is something strange about the partition D: it is 225 GB of missing! After scoring all of the files in the partition D > properties, there are only 25 GB in use and really little or no free space! There isn't any system or other files with this 25 GB. More than 220 GB in partition D is simply disappeared.

    C partition looks normal. Tried all known Windows tools: check disk, defragmentation, convenience stores, etc. without results. Any suggestion or idea what s happened past and how to fix it? Thanks in advance!

    Can you please open Computer Management > disk management. Make a screenshot and post it here.
    I would like to see exact HDD structure.

  • Free space on the hard C drive.

    I have window vista Home premium, 64-bit operating system. My hard drive C is full disk cleanup, I tried. Also removed the unwanted files & programs I didn't, Disk Defragmenter, and yet my C drive is full. I need space what can do?

    You need a bigger hard drive. Also note that defragmentation will give you more space - it simply rearranges the pieces on your drive.

  • The Prime Minister took all the space on the hard disk OS'

    Hello.

    I sort approximately 50 + hours of game play. I used CC Prime Minister, I would like to cut out a bit that I want and add it to Media Encoder. I made this remarks of segments of 20 or more than anywhere between 10 seconds to 2 minutes. And all exported almost well, only some didn't sound, but Pr told me that there is a disk error.

    (C) is the operating system. (E) has all the files work, music, movies, shows, etc. And (z) are games and programs.

    What is really weird and made me post here, it is that I know Adobe is installed on Z: and when I started the project, it has been set to Z: also. What is even more strange is that C: > users > user, is at 66 gb at the moment, but when I go inside this folder and right-click > properties all of them, all together they don't not add to 66 gb. What is going on? A kind of temporary files? Thanks to advanvce!
