Hi,
I own a 160GB Western Digital Hard Drive partitioned into a 40GB OS
partition and the other 120GB for my files.
However, when I run Disk Cleanup utility from within Vista Ultimate, it
shows multiple 131GB options for me to clean up, which is quite ridiculous. I
have cleaned up with the 131GB option checked before, resulting in the
desktop and pretty much everything on the 40GB partition being deleted.
I have had to reformat the computer and reinstall Vista, but it seems this
is a recurrent problem. It is not a critical flaw as no damage will be done
if the Disk Cleanup is not run, but if it is, I think other users facing this
same problem will be quite grieved at the loss of important data.
Anyone had a similiar experience or can offer help?
