I would say it has to be volume shadow copies. You say you have deleted restore points, but have you turned off restore points for the drive?

Here is a screen shot of Space Sniffer, Windirstat, and Treesize file all showing approximately 33-36GB of used disk space. Since my last post, my drive has dropped to 10.7GB of free space, even though these three disk storage programs are static in showing used disk space.
One explanation I got regarding the discrepancy of my properties screen shot and the disk usage programs is that "one is showing theoretical drive space assuming you are using each cluster fully, the other is calculated drive space based on the amount of space that is actually used in each cluster."
Alas, this takes us back to square one... where is my free space disappearing too?
Yes, I've deleted restore points and shadow copies multiple times and it hasn't freed up any space at all. Restore points have also been turned off.
What anti-virus program are you using?
Did you run a FULL SCAN using MalwareBytes? (link in my sig).
right click on My Computer, Properties, Click on System Protection, Highight C and click on Configure, what is the current usage amount shown?
Can you post a screen shot of Disk Management?
