So I just made the jump from windows 7 to windows 10, and I have this 2TB drive where I'm using around 1.2TB. It was never a problem with windows 7 to see how many files, folders, and how much space it all took.
However when I checked the main folder in windows 10, it told me I was only using 48.7GB with 806 files located in 521 folders: View: https://i.imgur.com/lvm1s0W.jpg
However if I checked a program like TreeSize it correctly tells me that the main folder is weighing in at 1.2TB with 29.650 files located in 3.526 folders: View: https://i.imgur.com/IAAyGeS.jpg
What's the problem here? If I use the normal explorer and go inside the main folder and check one of the larger sub folders it tells me that there's hundreds of GB within that subfolder alone, so obviously it knows there are more and bigger files within the main folder, but it's just not counting them for some reason.
There aren't any hidden files or folders, and it's not anything related to the system or windows backups or anything of the sort.
Anyone know how I can fix it?
I've tried running TLPD to find out if I had any files over the length of 255 characters, and there were some, but even when I adjusted the number to 0 files over that file length, it changes nothing (I had a hope that might have been screwing with windows, but alas).
