  Hello

  These 2 files are normal for any installation of Windows.

  $recycle.bin contains data relating to the trash and the System Volume information contains the Restore Points to restore the system on each disk.

  Normally, these folders are hidden by default.

  In file Explorer, click the view tab in the Ribbon toolbar.

  In the Options Menu, select folder and search options.

  In the Folder Options window, select the view tab.

  Select the option do not show hidden files, folders, and drives.

  Click apply/OK.

  rhl_yadav,

  It is IMPORTANT that you do not delete these files. They are very important to the operating system.

  Instead, you can hide:

  • Open the Options folder by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, appearance and personalization, and then clicking Folder Options.
  • Click the view tab.
  • Under Advanced settings, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" and "Hide protected operating system files ' are not checked, and then click OK.

  When I boot computer I get this message... Remove the c:/System Volume Information directory. EFaDATA\SYMEFA. DB-Journal is damaged and unreadable... How to fix this?

  Thank you very much for your help.
  I discovered the new external hard drive was the problem. Formatted as NTFS seems to be a problem so I reformatted to FAT and the problem disappeared.

  Thanks again.

• System volume information stolen hard drive. VERY slow computer and windows show only (not answer) for 2 to 10 seconds at a time. Help, please.

  After starting my computer to Windows 7 Enterprise, I noticed that it runs very slowly.  for example, the scrolling of a window of firefox crashes every 10 seconds or more.  The gel lasts between 2 and 10 seconds with the little blue wheel, spinning, (not answer) in the toolbar.

  I pulled the top of resource monitor and to see that 4 PID - C:\System Volume Information\ {guid} {guid} is running non-stop with about 720ko read by writing dry and 6 MB per second Disk 0 length of the queue is pegged at 5.  from time to time (once every 10 to 15 minutes), the queue goes to 0 and the computer starts acting normally (i.e. fast) again.  But once the length of the queue points to 5, the problems continue.

  I am running in raid 5.

  I noticed that vssvc.exe is running (PID 4144) with a reference to c:\System Volume Information and the same GUID as PID 4 - system and kernel.

  Any idea what I can do to get back on my computer?  At this point, it is absolutely unusable.

  Thank you

  I did previously press properties of drive C and press the safety button don't miss. Now my pc c diving all the file disappear and turn into "System Volume Information" folder only. If I try to search previous folder still can enter in through to find the name of the folder. In fact, I would like to know can get any method back to my previous version of pc that can see the folder back. Indeed pretty weird as the last time I try to use the search function can always get the desired file name that I used to have. But currently when I remember one of the things to look for, but it cannot search again. Not sure when I'm going to fix the system, the file appears again. My C drive disk space not reduce but just show the 'System Volume Information' folder but not show anything this either inside after click the folder. Not sure you have encounter this problem or not.

  Next to my disk error C, my D drive also seem to mistake, as evidenced by the "Valorisation" folder but doesn't show anything. But when I click on the search button, can find some files as shown in my D drive path. Don't know how to recover my files.

  If you know who are faced with this problem and the method to solve, can share with me.

  In any case, thank you very much.

• There are two folders in my D drive named a $RECYCLE. BIN and an other named 'System volume information' is thease records a part of the activity of any virus?

  I just want to know is the two folders named "$RECYCLE." BIN and System volume information"in my drive D is a part of a virus activity because when I remove the trash to the folder it disappears, and when I try to delete the other folder recycle comes back and I can't remove to access the second folder named, the system volume information?
  Please help me.

  concerning

  These are the two typical Windows system folders. $Recycle.bin is exactly that, the files in the folder are actually moved to when removing other parts of the car. He installed this folder on each drive that you see when you open the Recycle bin icon on the desktop.

  System Volume Information is a system folder and contains all the files that reside on the disk that are included in food, distributed link tracking Service points, content indexing Services and Volume Snapshot Service. This deletion would be a very good way to break your computer.

  You deleted the parameter Hide protected system files that should never be done unless you have a specific reason to do so. The setting is there for a reason.

• Loss of disk space available every day as System Volume Information folder is the largest on my hard drive

  My PC is under Windows7 Home Premium... version 6.1... Build 7601... service pack 1.

  I have a 1 TB hard drive... 3 weeks ago, I've had approximately 813 gb free space... now, I have only 603 gb of free space. I noticed that the folder System Volume Information is passed to 209,53 Go. Don't know why this issue became so great. I lost about 5 to 20 GB of free space on the hard disk every day.

  The System Volume Information folder is the largest on my hard drive... Users folder is 43.38 GB... Windows folder is 31.89 GB... WinSxS folder is 15,18 GB.

  I installed a couple of applications in the last 6 months... Driver booster... Download App... and size of file.

  I didn't save my PC in the last 3 weeks because of this problem.

  The only application that I use for backup is MotoCast USB... it creates a backup of the SD card in my smartphone to my PC.  I've been backup card SD in my phone every 3-4 weeks for the past 2 years but never lost so much hard drive space until the last 3 weeks.

  Any suggestions?

• Windows error message "cannot find the file K:\$MFT or K:\System Volume Information.

  Original title: Windows Error Message.  Cannot locate the file K:\$MFT

  Periodically, I get an error message stating that Windows cannot locate the file K:\$MFT or K:\System Volume Information.   In this case my computer loses contact with K (my backup drive).  The only way I can get the command back up and running is to shut it down, restart windows and then reconnect the drive.  I have absolutely no idea where, why, or what this message is not irritating and a nuisance.  How can I stop this?

  My problem is back and I guess that I does not after all.  It was suggested that more info on my system could help find answers.  I am running Windows XP. SP3.  My HD is 500 GB.  Intel Core 2 CPU.  6600 GHZ, 3 GB of Ram.

  In addition the cannot locate the message file, it sometimes indicates that a "delayed write failed" and I should save the K:\$MFT file also.

  As far as I can tell, I have solved my problem.  Windows 'Restore' was trying to save my disk backup for future use, and I think it's whence came the message.  I changed the settings to restore now ignores my backup disk and the problem has not happened since.  I hope it's the end of it.

• Formatting the USB in Windows XP disk, create a folder "system volume information" How can I overcome this problem

  Hello team, I tried to format my 2 GB to Format NTFS USB in WINDOWS XP. When I format the drive, it has been formatted sucssfully, but in the formatted disk, a folder is created named as 'System Volume Information '. I tried to remove my USB drive safley but it show and error as "the generic Volume is used in another program... '. ».  Why this happens, the 'System Volume Information' folder is a virus? How can I fix this problem... reply me as soon as possible... Thank you all...

  Hello

  It does seem like a virus. Since you're a NTFS format, it should be a system folder. System folder is present on NTFS volumes and is used for system restore points.

  If you want to remove, you may need to format the drive to FAT32.
