    Won't Show Used or Free Space on Computer


    When I left click the local disc and the graph comes up it is all blue for no free space but next to used and free space is says 0 KB for both. It is not showing how much used or free space I actually have. I used disc cleanup to free up 768 MB of space but the graph is still all blue for no free space and still says 0KB next to both and won't show the actual amount of used or free space. How can I fix this and see the actual numbers? Also besides disc cleanup and emptying the recycle bin how can I free up more space?

    Start Orb
    Left tick My Computer
    Right tick on C drive/partition.
    Then select properties.

    Also:

    Start Orb
    Right tick on My Computer
    Left thick on Manage
    Then select Disk Management that is under Storage.

My NTFS non-system partition is now almost well defragmented. However this applies only to small and medium sized files. There are still approx 40 big files (> 1 GB) which cannot be defragmented because there is no free single (!) space slot where they fit in. So I need a way to shift all...

Good day guys, well, I was just installing Linux Fedora on my computer (I wanted a Dual-Boot with Win7) but I noticed that I don't have second partition. So I deleted some useless files (trash, games, etc.) back on Win7, and Voala, I just gained around 60GB of free space. I decided to creat new...
Hi, We have large volumes connected to users here, but silly Windows thinks that 250GB of 3TB is running out of space! Is there a group policy or registry hack that will allow us to not mark a network drive as having low space? Thanks
