[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1581337, member: 131855"] Ditto. Member chas_m beat me to the punch. I just checked my drives out of curiosity and because I had not checked in a whole. My SSD has almost 150 GB of "Other" files and the other drives are between 25 and 75 GB. My general rule for dealing with "Other" files is to find out what they are first. See post 11 above. Then apply the following rule to any file you are going to delete/move. [B]Did I create this file? If not it stays till I know what it is/does.[/B] [/QUOTE]
