Hi i have a strange problem that ive been trying to find an answer to for weeks now. My pagefile.sys directory is showing up as 155GB:
As you can see the actual pagefile.sys file is 756MB which is what it should be but the directory for it shows up as 155GB. By the graphic you can see that relative to the entire drive, the actual size of pagefile is right (about 1.5% of map or 756MB) but for some reason my computer is "seeing" it as 155GB.
???
I have a 250 gig HD and ive run every possible test i could find to see if i may have a bad drive but they all pass with no problems. Ive defragged, ran the extended Chkdsk utility and everything checks out OK.
I havent noticed any problems related to this and i still have about 70GB of storage space left but i dont know what's gonna happen when my computer thinks its full, even though there should be another 155GB? thanks
