    low disc space bug. disapearing gb


    hi,
    i think i have a bug in my pc. the c local disc if filling up by air. it shows that it is full but even WinDirStat cant find those gb.
    i attached a print screen that shows my completely full 223 gb c, and the windirstat that finds only 100gb.

    Hi Nadav,

    can you run, from an elevated command mode
    sfc /scannow
    and
    chkdsk /r

    printscreen


    so i tried to run these commands and i got what you can in the photo attached.
    i restarted the computer and the chksdk ran and then the desktop showed up. didnt see any report for the scan.

    the other photo is of the task manager. as you can see, the alarm clock, wich i dont know where it is, how to open or how to use is building up memory as the computer is on. after restart, it took 40 mb.
