it's clogged up with audio or files I don't want , but don't

I don't believe it's stratght audio data; I remember getting a tip

You don't have to remember what the file is - you can just look. If you
know that it's a Cakewalk file that's taking up the space, surely you
can find it with a file search.

It could be a number of things - it could be WAV files from a project,
it could be archived BUN files, it could be the picture cache (WOV)
files.

YOU have to tell US in order to get a sensible answer. We're not mind
readers and we can't see your computer from here. We need specific file
names.


Yep, 20gb of Cakewalk Audio Bundle files....that would be them.

cool, now back to the midi age ....
