Where did all of the hard drive space go?


I wasn’t sure that Lora believed me when I said the Tablet PC hard drive was full. Actually, I was a little stunned last night and have been searching for the cause ever since receiving the notice. After a few hours of deleting Microsoft Money and other unused programs, there was still less than a few GB left.
A right-click on “My Documents” shows 18.4 GB of the hard drive is being used. Clearly this is not the cause of a 60 GB drive being full. After sniffing and crying to anyone who would listen, the time came to look at some of the other folders on the drive. Something had to be the cause for the hard drive being full.
After a laborious search, Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\OneNote shows 29.4 GB being occupied. The Backup folder is 16.9 GB and 12.0 folder is 12.4 GB in size. Ah ha ! The hogs have been found!
Image supplied for all those who doubt the hard drive challenge … Now what? Any suggestions?
