Yep , I think you hit the nail on the head. I have another external drive that i switched to for windows backup and that drive should be almost totally empty and the drive shows 117 Gb used. That drive I can see the backup/restore files size and its a total of 107Gb. Now for some reason the OSD does show me about 8 backup/restore folders but it will not show me the sizes. i assume they range from fairly small the day the system was first turned on to fairly large the day when I switch to an external backup drive.

So I think that solves the issue.

can I get rid of some of the backup files but keep some like the very first , when I added the USB 3 card and when I added the Blu Ray? those would be possible useful restore points but the rest could go but its not obvious how to delete single ones. If I shut off restore I lose them all I believe?

Thanks
