I was downloading stuff from the net happily this afternoon, and a 'low disk space' prompt appeared (This happened on my C drive.). Heeding the advice, i proceeded to cut and paste my junk files to my external usb hard disk.
Now when i returned to verify the final available disk space, it only showed 400 mb free. And I'm very positive that i've cut & pasted at least 4GB of junk files to other places.
I immediately went for the disk cleanup option, but to no avail. Deleting the .tmp files were redundant. (My search function reveals none at all in the first place. :-/) I sat like an idiot in front of the screen for 10 mins, at a loss of what to do.
That's not all. My 400 mb free space decreased by 30 mb every 8 mins, even though i'm only downloading a document @ 0.5kb/s.
To summarize my problem...
1: Whats wrong with my screwed C drive? I seemed to be missing a few GB of precious free space.
2: My free space decreases at an alarming rate, even though when I'm downloading at a slow speed. *censored*?
I would appreciate if any kind soul could stand out to help me. :-/
