Linking you in to above thread... figure their team are working on it.

Same here - someone must be fiddling with digital architecture.

Hi All Thanks for your replies. The laptop is not high spec, 64bit x 64 OS windows 11, Intel(R) Pentium(R) CPU 6405U @ 2.40GHz 2.40 GHz, installed Ram 4GB . I back up to up to my three portable plug in hard drives so images are saved there there is ample room as these are 2TB each . Since this problem I did start transferring raw images from camera to portable hard drives then cherry picking a few at a time to process and edit hoping to find a solution. However this is invariably slow time consuming it has caused a significant backlog in my workflow its not an effective working process so I will have to purchase a new replacement with more clout and robust processor. My first thought was a virus or malware as it seemed no matter what files were culled space appeared to be shrinking it freed up little in comparison. I did not have these problems on my pc but I have that in storage elsewhere plus pc cannot be carted around portability is essential for me. I will need to think about options as at present I have a serious backlog of image files to process. Thanks for your help everyone.

it does say MB not GB. Thanks for your input both there is nothing left on hard drive after deleting en masse as last ditch effort to free up space, so it does seem like it must have had it. Any buying recommendations for a good laptop anyone?

Hi All, Experiencing ongoing issues with my laptop hard drive no space despite only notepad and lightroom being left on it. It has proved to be a nightmare trying to process images without no room on scratch disk and abysmal freeze up. I culled everything I could with the expectation it would free up space, still no joy. I checked disk management noticing two partitions one has 260 MB space , second 956 MB, however if then try to access run as admin - chkdsk E : /f /r /x pressed enter it returns cannot open volume for direct access. Does anyone on the forum have any tech advice , other than to throw the dinosaur in the bin 🫢 as I would prefer to avoid purchasing a new laptop at this moment in time. Anyone have any helpful suggestions? 😟

Many Thanks Bryan.

Ditto. Uploaded a batch yesterday evening these have disappeared too.🤔

Thanks for that.

So that's a quite a seachange from when you visited Michael? I suppose it highlights for some of us to check before travel - regards how important it is to keep updated and research on any restrictions or changes to legislation.

Can we claim DACS ourselves if the sale is via Alamy if we manage to locate the details ?
