Somehow (?), Drive Information shows a lot of used space on one of my network drives:

Free space.png (15.79 KiB) Viewed 6839 times
Almost 16 EB used! :shock:

The drive's Properties in Explorer seems to calculate space in another way: the used space is the sum of the actual file sizes, and the free space is the difference between quota (2 GB for me) and used space:
Used space: 280.309.760 bytes (267 MB)
Free space: 1.867.173.888 bytes (1,73 GB)
Capacity: 2.147.483.648 bytes (2,00 GB)
Windows Explorer also says "23 items (Disk free space: 1,73 GB)" in the Status Bar.

Hi, could you please tell us more about your Windows version and about the network drive? Is it another Windows machine? What version?

Salamander 2.52?

Edit: we need to do something with the dialog box layout...

The big number is unsigned int64 representation of -64GB (2 - 66 = -64). I'll fix this problem in the first preview build of version 2.53.

My OS is Windows Vista Business x64. The drive is a mapped NFS share on a Windows Server 2003 machine. I use Salamander 2.52.
I think the problem is the quota.
I do not understand why Salamander thinks 66GB is free (I think this really is the space on the 'disk'), but Windows Explorer thinks only 1,73GB (maybe the quota left?). I have only 84MB in use of the 2GB quota so I would say 1,92GB... :?
Hope this helps.
