hello everybody
i gather this is a pretty common complaint because i've seen it covered on the forum before but mine problem doesn't seem to want to go away after following those steps.
basically, we recently reset our family computer (like a big reset, F11, year zero, everything deleted) and now none of us (there are three partitions) have any files. However after trying to save a movie clip my computer informs me i'm out of disk space. i go to investigate and my C drive is saying it's 99% full. what the fack.
so i found my way here by searching the web and despite my ineptitude with computers i've done:
one of those ScanDisk things that takes about 2 hours
a disk cleanup
i've
tried to defrag but the comp says i only have 1% free disk space and that's not enough for it to do a defrag
and i've cleaned out my temp files, cookies, history etc..
i'm totally open to any suggestions or trying anything listed above with better instructions because i am quite bad at computers and there may have been something i missed. HALP
