my c drive(xp service pack 3 installed) shows
total size: 24.4GB
used: 15.4GB
free: 8.92GB
but if i "select all" files inside c drive and check it adds up to only 12.9GB
all hidden files and protected system files(page hibernate files) are visible. system restore is disabled.
so why is the difference?
i haven't defragmented the drive for a long time. will defragmentation recover the disk space?
