![]() ![]() Two days ago this happened: I got a flash with 3 GB of data, copied it to my machine successfully (as per windows) but the copied parent folder is only 2.2 GB of data. So why? If I go over the files manually, things seems fine and everything is there but I can't possibly check for each and every file because of the hugs number of both files and sub-folders. The file system is the same, and the allocation unit size should be the same as well. It is annoying because sometimes you want to copy files from a USB drive of a friend and you want to make sure you got all the files before returning it but you obviously can't because of this weird issue. But NO, that's not the case with me!!! You copy folder1 from drive Z to drive Y, and the resulting folder1 in drive Y will be less in size although windows claimed the copy operation completed successfully. You know, it is just natural to check the size of the copied folder to make sure everything was copied successfully. Sometimes when I copy large folders from location A to location B, the size in the new location will be noticeably different. ![]() ![]() I noticed this only with windows 10 boxes, hence the question in the title. ![]() I don't know if anybody have seen something like this, but this is driving me nuts. ![]()
