Free disk space calculus by XP

by jjvtechrep . Updated 18 years, 11 months ago

Hello,
My C: (system) partition seems to contain 6,22 Go but when I add up the space taken by the folders appearing in Windows Explorer, that amounts to 4,33 Go only (figures given by Windows Explorer “properties”).
How come there is a difference ( and a noticeable one by that) ?
That prevents a proper defragmentation…

FAT32 partition, XP SP2, installed over WIN98SE, explorer set to display all the files, “1024” conversion rate taken into account.

Thank you for your help !
