Missing Hard Drive Space
I researched some other posts that sounded along the same lines and i have tried several things but i still can not seem to find the missing space.
I have a 1TB WD Black formatted to 931GB. I realize this is not going to be exactly 1GB.
Under My Computer, i have 84.1 GB free of 931.
When i use WindDirStat as recommended by other posts, it tells me at the top how many GB are on this drive. It says 675.6GB. I am wondering how i am missing (931-675.6-84.1 =) 171.3GB!
I have checked the "My Computer --> Properties --> System Protection --> Configure for this drive and it the current ussage is set to 0 bytes and max usage set all the way to the left with the "Turn off system protection" box enabled.
I've set to show hidden files and can find none.
Any ideas about the missing 171.3 GB? It's enough to feel a little frustrating.
