I have the exact same problem, I been using google to search for a solution and found this message. I'm just glad I'm not the only one with this problem. What I did was change the place where the image files were stored (I changed it to my other hard drive, where I would know exactly where it should be) after that burning session the image file was removed like it's supposed to, but I still can't find how to get rid of the ones that have been taking up space on my main hard drive.

i haven't yet commented on this one as i don't use the disc copy feature. but what i can say is that i'm not aware of temporary files being left around after the disc copy processes..

As far as I know they're not supposed to be left behind either, but I'm sure it's because of the Copy Disk, and here's why:
I had about 5.6 GB of free space that I keep free on my main hard drive solely for the purpose of disk copying. I went to copy this DVD and I stopped it when it was about 30% done, because I forgot to close all other programs. I exited Nero Express completely and opened it again but as soon as I began copying again I was notified that there wasn't enough space which struck me as odd becuase of that space I always kept free. so I went to my main drive and found that something around 1GB had been taken. I deleted some old movie files that I had lingering and went back to the copying. this time it went completely ok, but when I exited the program there was only 1,56 GB left of my hard drive. All other programs were closed so there was no way it could have been anything other than Nero Express. I went to the place where the Image files were put while copying (my documents) but found nothing, but that 3+GB of memory that's unaccounted for has to be somewhere.

*peeks in,
Hi all sometimes when using Nero the images are stored in the folder my documents. I had this same problem and after a fruitless search of programs file i found the images there. Hope that is the one place where you might find the mysterious images taking up hd space.

The easiest way to do it, is by doing a "Search" on your hard drive for files that are over "300,000 KB" (you can put whatever number you want there). In the search results, it will show you the location of them and it also allows you to delete them from the search results window.

Hey guys i finally found those images thank god and thanks to creaky, creaky really thanks man you are the man.
i used treesize and they were in a folder that for some reason i do not have access to...(and i have the option to see hidden folders and system folders checked)but anyways i couldnt see that folder, so what i did is i went to c: and if you look for the folder recycler you are not gonna find it, so on the address box on top i typed c:\recycler and then it show me another directory which is nprotect, i clicked on there and walla !!!!!! all my images were there....
really thanks for everything....this a great forum....especially thanks to creaky.....until next time

yay, no worries, i found that to be a brilliant little program. ps as to recycler folder, i've always wondered what that is as usually only see it on work pc's so always assumed (even though it sounds similar to the recycle bin) that it was some of our firm's sneaky software (they have loads of nosy software running monitoring things due to 2 separate times where developers went postal and wrote/released their own viruses.
Anyway...did some searching re recycler as i'd always been too lazy to properly check it out and found this - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/171694/EN-US
snippet from there Quote:
When you delete a file in Windows NT Explorer or My Computer, the file is stored in the Recycle Bin. The file remains in the Recycle Bin until you empty the Recycle Bin or restore the file.
The Recycler folder is used only on NTFS partitions. The Recycler folder contains a Recycle Bin for each user that logs on to the computer, sorted by their security identifier (SID).
- a-ha, i only started using NTFS a few months ago at home, hence why i'd never come across recycler out of work. that'll teach me to be lazy!.
also, ntprotect is part of the annoying Norton software offerings -
Quote:
A couple of years ago I uninstalled Systemworks 2003. I used the Symantec RNav2003.exe removal tool, scoured the registry for all remaining Symantec entries (there were hundreds), and deleted all orphan folders and files (dozens).
I then installed Avast Free and am quite happy with it.
I ran the PC PitStop tests last night just out of curiosity, and they showed almost two gigabytes of junk files on one of my partitions. I took a look, and found a folder called NTPROTECTED in the RECYCLER folder. It's a remnant of the Symanec Protected Recycle Bin. I used Google to look into it, and found that it's a common problem. Based on my research, I made a complete backup, deleted the files in NTPROTECTED, then deleted the NTPROTECTED folder. I've had no problems, and have gained a lot of disk space.
Why is the Symantec program so intrusive in the first place, and so incredibly bad about cleaning up after itself when you uninstall it?
