Hi,

Whilst backing up my c drive using Easeus todo I inadvertently sent it to my existing C drive instead of my external drive which has now obviously increased it's volume.

Is there any way that I can remove this back up from the C drive?

Any advice appreciated.

Can't you just open the C Drive and right click the backup then delete?

Hi SillBill,

Didn't notice it tucked away amongst the files. Had visions of a drive wipe and reinstall.

Many thanks.....you're a star.

OR..if it is in one large file, drag and drop ( move option ) and leave it for a few hours !!!

Hi iscanut,

Thanks for your reply, have deleted it as per SillBill.

But will bear your suggestion in mind in the event of a unlikely repeat.[URL=http://i151.photobucket.com/albums/s127/Midlanderphoto/sEmblush8.gif][IMG]http://i151.photobucket.com/albums/s127/Midlanderphoto/thsEm_blush8.gif[/IMG][/URL]
