Help..Computer Question

[crazygirley]

Okay, I need help from someone who knows about computers. I am going to uninstall a game that I have on my computer, but when I uninstall it from the computer and it's gone, do I get all of the hard drive space that it took up back, or is it gone forever?

Yes you regain the space.

I am so stupid. Thank you for your help!

 

[The_CEO]

You are VERY welcome!

Not so stupid. If you were asking about a CD (CDR) the answer would have been different! Don't ever be afraid of asking a question.

Theres no stupid questions, just stupid people.

Yep... you get back the file space... but not all of it... there will be some slight file slack space... not that big of a deal... but it would be best to defragment your C drive when you get a chance... to clean it up, get rid of the slack... and speed up your other programs on your hard drive. :wave:

You might also want to empty the recycle bin. Some uninstall programs seems to directly delete everything and some dump parts into the recycle bin.
