Flash drive says folder empty, but gb count high
« on: January 18, 2009, 08:54:33 AM »
I have a 16 GB flash drive that I put some music on to play in my truck. I deleted all the files , but when I click on Properties, it says there is 13.3 GB used. When I open the folder , it says folder is empty. I can't put any more than 2,7 GB on this now. Any ideas to get this ghost data out of the drive?
