GrundleLove Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 i recently got DiskView because i found it bizairre that my harddrive only had 20 gb left...so i did a scan and it seems that "C:\documents and settings\{my name}" is huge....like over 80 gb used up...and i dont know how. after i had to do a system recovey a few times the names just got carried over and all so idk ...they only reason i am saying this is because when i try to do into my name (old from previous recovery) then mydocuments (which is the largest) it sas "access denied"...so like now i dont know how to gte into it. and i really need to to see whats taking up so much space. any ideas?

TheTerrorist_75 Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 I would suspect DiskView is giving an inaccurate reading for one. As for getting access to the old My Documents How to take ownership of a file or folder in Windows XP. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
