Remo Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Its a bit of a random question but someone must know If I go to my C drive on "My Computer" right click properties I can see free space verus used space. So for arguments sake, lets call it a 10GB drive and says 5GB full, but then I click into the drive and highlight everything and do properties its says 4GB full I did this on 2 computers today and the difference between properties of a C drive on "my computer" and going into the drive and highlighting everything was generally quite different, surely the highlighted contents should be of the same size? Confused but curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
