Ok, so this is the first time I ever tried defragging my laptop. Now it so happened that I had to abort it for some reasons. I was using the BitDefender 2011 Total Security Defragger, on Vista Ultimate 32bit.
What happened was that I initially had around 20gb free out of 117gb for my C drive. After the aborted defrag, and for the continuing 24hrs later, all that 20gb suddenly got used up by some unknown entities. I checked the user file folders, and they all come out as not having increased in size. There was a point where i had 6gb left, and i tried deleting some unneeded videos, uninstalled some unused (anymore) programs and after the process, I got 4gb left! (WTH? deleting results to decrease in space left?) The worst it got to was at 1.7Gb. After a shutdown and restart, I am now running on 3.9gb free on the C drive, and has decided to restart the defrag and let it finish.
Any ideas on what's happening?
