wrong sice info by erasing (wipe) free space


Recommended Posts

What exactly is this file that CCleaner got a wrong size estimate??

I love computer maintenance tasks.

Some of my favorite programs:

Wordpad -basic word processing

Notepad - temporary clipboard and basic scripting module

Windows Media Player 12- video, music and online radio player

Windows Media Center - live TV, local FM radio

CCleaner- handy computer maintenance tool

 

If something fails to work after using the registry cleaner, use SYSTEM RESTORE.

It ist the by ccleaner generated file for the wiping process for the free space on a volume. ccleaner shows the wrong unit in the status bar during the wipe proccess; after the MFT wiping. I will do it a second time and post later today to this topic a screenshot for a better description.

Hi, I'm not German but doesn't German Regional settings specify comma (,) as a decimal separator and period (.) as thousands separator which in this case would mean 15 809MB as in 15 thousand MB ~ 14 GB? :)
