| 249182 | 2004-07-02 23:58:00 | Brandybottle: you were given several options to try and it isn't clear which of those options did the trick. :-) I was just wondering whether it was cleaning out your temporary files that fixed it, or whether you did something to system restore. Either of those options would only be temporary - your hard drive will soon "fill up" again with more files until the files are cleared next time. Anyway, it is good to know that you had your problem solved. :-) |

| 249183 | 2004-07-03 01:51:00 | Sorry for the confusion. I just unticked the restore box. As far as I can see this has fixed it, as the 'pie' in the 'My computer' has not grown in size (as yet). I reckon this was the answer to the 'pie' filling mystery. Again thanks to all who helped Kind regards. |

| 249186 | 2004-07-04 02:41:00 | > When I go to my computer properties I see the 'Pie' filling up with out me downloading or adding a new programme. I few months ago I down loaded a programme that reduced my 'space' on the properties 'pie' considerably. Why is it filling up on its own accord. Not that it makes any differance to the speed etc. I keep scanning and defranging frequently to keep it running "bang on" I can't remember the name of the programme I down loaded except that is was a 'cleaner type' that deleted all unused files and registry stuff. Any Ideas? It was a trial one that did not 'go' after 30 days. It is quietly filling my pie up again? > Hope you can understand my laymans language ? I have windinow me. > Regards You must learn to hide the pie in the fridge from now on. |
