Strange...

I was cleaning up my computer and looked at properties of the folder and it was 15gbs...
I open up the folder and select the all files and folders and under properties it says 9gbs... Where are the other 11gbs?

6GBs? Eitherway, any hidden files? :)

To unhide all the hidden files on your system, follow these steps:

From the Control Panel, click the Folder Options icon.

When the Folder Options dialog box appears, select the View tab.

Open the Hidden Files and Folders item and check the Show Hidden Files and Folders option.

Click OK to register your changes.

its a bit fool proof to remove hiding of hidden files.But yea thats the problem.
(thats the hard way)

This is within the limits of Windows System Restore.I beleive that windows will use up to ten percent of available spce by default.Norton recycle bin uses the same amount as well.

Could you tell us what "the folder" is?

Or what you deleted? 9 +11 is 20. Close though.
