I have this really annoying problem. I have my 80 gig formatted into a couple NTFS partitions. My G: partition has this problem:
Whenever I cut something from it and paste it to another partition. The receiving partition loses the right amount of free space however the G: partition does not gain ANY free space. For example, I cut a 100mb folder from G: and paste to D:, D: would have then have 100mb lower free space but G: would still have the same amount as before, not 100mb more. If this keeps up, my G: partition could be all used with nothing in it! Get this, when I delete from G:, the right amount of free space gets added, so it's only cut/paste. I did a disk check on G: and the indexes seemed to be fine. I also defragged, virus scanned, and ran disk diagnostics; nothing came up. This just started recently too and I didn't do anything major. Keep in mind these partitions are all on the same disk.
Help?
