enright666 is on a distinguished road
Default deleted a file to make spac but once deleted didnt make any space

hello
i was running low on space on my hard drive so
i deleted a file which size was 12gb.
so i deleted it and then check to see how much
space i had on my hard drive and nothing had change.
it said the file had been deleted.
so i looked in the recycle bin, not there. i did a disk clean up but
didnt make any difference.
so i am wondering where did the file go.
is it on my hard drive somewhere still taking up space.
what can i do to clean it out or to find it.

hope someone can help
enright
