 |
|
Hello, I have a question about memory sticks/jump drives.
I have both a 1 & 2 gig jump drive/memory stick I use for transfering files between computers at home and work.
Well, I've cleared both of them out, but they both show that they are almost completely full. There's nothing on them, but they are almost full and can't really get anymore files on them.
I've tried defraging them and virus scanning and all else I can think of.
Has anyone else had this problem?
My co-worker has the same situation with his. Don't know what to do.
Any help would be appreciated! |

Empty your computer's recycle bin. |

If your flash drive is showing full, and is really empty, try right clicking and reformatting.
It will erase anything on the flash drive. [I know, you say there's nothing on it] |
