Help - DivX has consumed my entire harddisk
    #7743952 - 12/11/07 07:04 AM (16 years, 1 month ago)

I only have a wee 40gb harddisk on my laptop.

I've been watching loads of movies on quicksilverscreen, they all use DivX and now my harddisk is full.

I havn't downloaded the movies so its obviouse that divx is putting them into a tempory file and not deleting the temporary file afterwards!!!

I've used disk cleanup, I've looked in all the temp folders, I've looked in the divx folder and I can't find anything.

Can someone please tell me where DivX has its temp folder, I need my harddisk back again  :mad:

Thats wierd,
I went fo a bath and came back and suddenly 3gb has re-appeared!?

When I left there was only 200mb!

Bring back the days of MS-DOS. I knew what everything did and when. I controlled the system. Now Windows and other programs are doing things for me - even things I don't want them to do - its making life harder to know whats happened when something strange goes on.

Thanks for the advice anyway!

C:/MSDOS WAS GREAT
C:/computers are only getting faster with more storage, but it seems we deal with a hell of a lot more bugs than we used to.
I want to ditch windows too, whats up with the linux business?

I know it is 2 years since this thread started, but............

The problem is (and can be easily corrected), that when you stream movies, they have to "Buffer".
DivX player will place a file on the computer which is a " .part " file.
Most times, this file will automatically delete itself when you have finished streaming and close the browser.
But there have been times i have observed that it did not delete, and stayed there.

The easiest way to get rid of them is to do a search for .part , and then delete them.
Think of them as like an internet cookie, but for a video file.

You can also as well get rid of them by opening up your DivX player, click on the Preferances, and look to see where your player is saving a copy of the file.
Then just browse to the folder and delete them all.
