[QUOTE="TattooedMac, post: 1088361, member: 101749"] Hmmm will keep thinking, but that folder will only be there ONCE the re-install has been done. It will also be the same size as what your previous system was ... example if i had 40GB left on my 120HD when i do a reinstall the size of my "previous" folder will be 80GB .... Remember anything in trash will need to be emptied for you to recover more space back :) cheers [/QUOTE]
