Hey guys,
so I have samsung series 5 ultrabook, and my hdd is already partitionned into C, D, and E when I bought it. E has about 100GB of space, but now Windows show that it's nearly full. But when I open it, there is merely a thing - I only see about 2GB of stuff. Any idea why it shows it's full?
Thanks in advance!

Are you using an account with admin access? You should be able to at least view the files, if so.

Also, it does appear that your system stores both the recovery files and your backups on the E: partition. You should have a utility to create backup DVDs that will allow you to remove the recovery files. You can also delete any old backup archives and just keep a more current one or two (to free up space).
