BigPaul2006 Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 I have a secondary partition i've been using to store music, pics, docs, iso's, etc. for over 3 years. ive started to run out of space and so ive been looking into ways of freeing up some. i connected to the partition through ftp and ive found a system volume information folder full of crap. what is this stuff and how can i delete it? if i have a second partition for only storing files, should the files i place there be the only ones there? even office 2003 places a msocache folder in there even after i tell it to delete any cache it placed there. hmph :crazy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agt Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 (edited) Mmm, its definitely used for system restore - if you don't use it, then I'd be tempted to delete the folder if its taking much space. http://www.activewin.com/winxp/tips/advanced/3.shtml Above link seems to agree ... go on, delete it! :devil: EDIT: I just deleted mine, and the computer seems to be worki#@QR$QWFWERFSEWAFCAW#$@QDEW#$@$Q#R@Q$@!$#Q @#$@WT%W$TWCorruptEFDSFDSFQWRWindows XP ProfessionalQ@#$#@Q#Q#GDBVALicense VolumeSDHTDRHTT%$T$Fatal%TGDFHBDfd sfsdaFDASFVa#R#AAECDASCASDCXAcsda Edited October 11, 2004 by Logic* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
