so i have a 1 tb hard drive that shows up as almost full in windows expolorer. when i ran windirstat to see whats taking up the space it showed that only ~450gb is taken up on the drive.
how can i figure out what else is on that drive?
i went into the folder options and chose to show hidden files and nothing else showed up.
there is a folder that cannot be deleted which i believe may be part of the problem. when i try to delete it i get a message saying that the item cannot be found.
is there anything i can do? preferably not a format of the drive.
i would like that extra space back
thanks
running win7 x64
rm
if you like. But if you can get as far as gparted, why not userm -Rf
on that drive after mounting it?
