Re: wheres my 20GB gone?

Da vista monster eats your drive...

it has restore points like XP, that are in a hidden folder..
but it also has "shadow copies" or your previous versions of files that are
also hidden...

you are selecting non hidden folders alone thats why you are not seeing the
correct size
