Moderators Nergal Posted July 14, 2010 Moderators Share Posted July 14, 2010 you had wipe free space checked and it didn't finish. you can either run the WFS again and it'll cleanup after it self or open the C:\ drive and find the giant file (it'll be a file with a string of alphanumeric (i.e. kjlasdsjaskjajh3883nd) and shift delete it) after doing this uncheck Wipe Free Space, it is the consensus here that it should only be checked off if you are selling the drive (search Wipe Free Space for more information on this opinion) ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

ident Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 The only way ccleaner could do this if you did in fact have wfs checked, download windirstat and see where the space is being taken up No fate but what we make Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
