alright so this issue has been going on for a long ass time
i install something
later i want to get rid of it...so i do
my in my computer it says that i have the same amount of hard drive space left from when it was on my computer
this happens for small files and large files
why does it do this?
have you tried defragging the drive? disk clean?
yep
it removes a lot
but it still stays the same
You have to empty the recycle bin (I assume you're in Windows). Then close the Windows Explorer window and re-open it. That should show the smaller size now on the drive. But until you empty the recycle bin (and if you're running Norton's, REALLY emptying it by destroying the "protected" files) all the file are all still there waiting to be restored.
nope nothing
