Windows 7: device called E/

After I moved all the files in the device called E/ .. there is still some about 40 giga in it ...
Why?

Sorry... Can you be more precise about the problem. I can't understand what you want to say...

I made a local disk empty from any files .. but it still has 3.9 GB used .. WHY?? I removed all the files and folders .. this is the Q

Make sure that you don't have any hidden files.
Hidden Files and Folders - Show or Hide

After this .. still 3.06 GB ??

So,you may do a Disk Cleanup on that drive. Disk Cleanup - Open and Use
Also,if after this there is again space used on disk,you format it,and create new partition with the same size.

After all this .. 96.6 MB are remained

Hm.. This is bit strange. Did you tryed to format the partition ? If you don't have anything on that partition,just right click on the partition and select Format.

I did format without making any changes to the options or anything ..

And you still have space used ?
