- restored to facctory settings and lost 20GB disk space
- Posted by Marc LaMassa on March 19th, 2006
after restoring my computer to thefactory settings, i've been left with about
200MB out of about 70GB. after searching through explorer, I've found 19GB
taken up by the main documents and settings folder but when getting
properties of each individual folder, they do not add up to 19 GB and I
cannot access the original "owner" folder but XP tells me there are no files
in there. During restore, is there a backup file made that is put into
documents and settings? How can i get my space back without formatting?
