To imthatguy and kroozer,
I found out the answer to this from a moderator named DennisD. He said it does the same thing on Windows, though, I've never noticed that.
So I downloaded the new stable version today and ran it. Cleaned out some things and got back a few GBs and then I let the Erase Free Space run and finish. Took about 30 minutes. When it finishes the free space comes back.
I did Not get back the free space I lost by stopping the procedure on the earlier run. Don't know where it is.
And I still couldn't give a Like This to DennisD since the button still tells me I have reached my quota for positive votes. I still haven't given any, but that's how it works.
Now the More Reply Options is not working. Connection closed by remote server. Post is not working either. Copy, paste to Bean and try later.
