Used 60 GB for Windows partition (BOOTCAMP) had less than 25GB free after instalation

Installed windows on bootcamp on my 2012 Retina MacBook Pro (256 SSD). I used 60 GB for Windows partition (BOOTCAMP) had only about 25 GB free after instalation. Why?
If I look at the size of all the folders inside BOOTCAMP it adds up to 17 GB. Where did almost 20 GB go?
I'd truly appreciate any help with this.
Thank you,
Matej

Look for two files.  pagefile.sys and hibernation.sys...these are used as swap space and ram sleep image respectively.  You can limit the first as suggested and turn the later off.

  • The battery of my MBA 13 "mid 2011 is lasting less than two hours after installing the Mountain Lion. Would be the OS or apps consumed much?

    My MBA is consuming the battery in less than two hours after I installed Lion Mountain. The update has already been done for some time. The problem of consumption would be the same OS, according to several complaints, or were inadequately apps consuming battery?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • During Windows install, says the Bootcamp Windows partition is incorrect file system and won't install

    I had another Macbook Pro retina which I installed Windows 8 on with no problems via bootcamp.  I just updated to the late 2013 model of the Macbook Pro, and attempted to do the same thing but have had problems.  I create the partition for Windows with Bootcamp, restart the computer, and after I enter my security key in the Windows installation screen it comes to the screen where you have to select the appropriate installation drive.  When I select the drive I created for Windows, it says that it can't install due to the file system.  I have no idea why I'm having this problem because I had done this once before....I can't for the life of me figure out what's wrong and I'm at a loss.
    If anyone can point me in the right direction I will greatly appreciate it...also let me know if there are differences from the early 2013 model and late 2013 model that would've created this problem.  Thanks!!

    Well, here is what happened...
    Somehow in making a Windows partition then removing the partition so many times I created an error where it only showed 1/2 of my hard drive...like it was starting to create the second half for the windows side and ran into an error.
    So this turned out to be a blessing in disguise, because what I had to do was go to "Command + R" when I was starting up and format the entire drive, all 500 gb.  This formatted the whole drive and must've erased whatever was causing the trouble.
    Of course, then I had to reinstall OS X, and reinstall my Time Machine backup, but then I opened bootcamp and created the Windows partition again.  This time, when I ran the EFI installer you were referring to on the far right (which I had tried before), it allowed me to click next and continue once I selected the Windows partition.  Thank God!  It must've fixed whatever file system error was hanging it up there every time....because it's installing now.
    What I would suggest if all else fails, just format the whole dang thing.  Then try from square one and see if you can install

  • Printer shared from my Mac is not seen from a PC using Bonjour for Windows

    I am going nuts here, hope someone can help.
    I have a Canon multi-function printer (MP830) attached via USB to a Mac G4 (with Mac OS X Tiger). At one time, I had it set so a Windows 2000 PC could print to it but deinstalled it after some printing issues, and have been unable to get to working again. The machines are connected together via a Netgear router. As far as I know, everything is the same as it was before, yet I cannot get it to work as it did.
    - The printer works fine from the Mac.
    - If I connect the printer to the PC, it works fine.
    - On the PC, using Bonjour for Windows, I cannot see the printer attached to the Mac but I can see, and print to, an Epson printer that is attached to a different Mac.
    - And from the second Mac, I am able to see -- but not successfully print to -- the Canon printer. The print job stays in the queue of the second Mac and says "Unable to connect to SAMBA host, will retry... Error: Connection failed with error."
    - I have tried:
    -- de-installing and re-installing Bonjour for Windows and the Canon print drivers on the PC
    -- and have de-installed and re-installed the Canon drivers on the Mac
    -- I have removed and re-added the Canon printer on the Mac. Printer Sharing is on, and this printer is checked in the Sharing box.
    Any suggestions?
    G4 Quicksilver and Dell PC with Windows 2000   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   Canon MP830

    Thank you. Those are beautifully written procedures.
    Looks like it's a network issue. I reach the step, "Adding a printer using the wizard":
    You must enter the following URL, you must use the Queue Name you noted down earlier
    http://<IP address of Mac>:631/printers/Queue Name
    which I do, entering
    http://192.168.0.4:631/printers/MP830
    and I get the following error:
    "Could not connect to the printer. You either entered a printer name that was incorrect or the specified printer is no longer connected to the server."
    And then I am toast!
    Using the other procedure, I simply don't see the Mac's printers in the Bonjour Wizard's "Browse for Bonjour Printers" window.
    Not sure where to go from here -- any ideas?
    The Mac's IP (set via DHCP) is 192.168.0.4, subnet mask 255.255.255.0. The PC is 192.168.0.5, I can't find the subnet mask.
    Pretty sure it's a network config issue, especially isnce I can Bonjour to my other Mac.
    TIA...

  • Can i run games for windows in bootcamp?

    so can i run games for windows in bootcamp? and will they work properly?
    thanks a lot!!
    i'm sorry, i posted it here...it should be in "using OS X"...
    Message was edited by: Nord1989

    Well I'm not to sure by what you mean "Which games run on Mac". There are not many that run on Mac that are that great although there are a few. Mostly for any great games you would need to run Boot Camp. Keep in mind though that you still need a version of Windows, so if you don't have one laying around somewhere you still have to buy that. Here is a link for your Mac games.

    If you are wondering about Windows games that you may be looking for I only currently have Left 4 Dead which I have to say is an amazing game! I really don't have many games so I can't help to much in good ones.

  • Use securefile for new partitions made by interval partitioning

    I am using Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production.
    I have a range partitioned table having lobs as basicfile. Due to storage issue and other business constraints , it is determined not to change existing lobs to securefile.
    However ,we want new lobs to be in securefile and alter table to have  interval partition+.
    While researching, I found sql to change lob in range partition to securefile by using
    alter table t1 add partition t1_p2 value less than (10000) lob (col3) store as securefile (tablespace tbs_sf1)Please advise me to do similar  in case of interval partition.
    Many thanks for assistance.

    >
    Can we modify default attribute of lob to store as securefile for partition table.
    >
    Yes - that is what I meant in my reply. But it seems I may have been wrong since after further testing I was able to find syntax that would appear to work for you. Please test this and post the results.
    The line
    LOB(CLOB_DATA) store as securefileshould store intervals as securefile. But it accepted syntax to store the predefined partitions as basicfile
      PARTITION P0 VALUES LESS THAN
      (TO_DATE(' 2008-01-01 00:00:00', 'SYYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS', 'NLS_CALENDAR=GREGORIAN'))
      LOB(CLOB_DATA) store as basicfile,I don't have time to test with data until next week. But if this works you could predefine all of your partitions that you want to use basicfile for and then use interval partitions for the ones you want securefile for. That sounded like what you were trying to do.
    DROP TABLE INTERVAL_SALES1 CASCADE CONSTRAINTS;
    CREATE TABLE INTERVAL_SALES1

  • 3d Builder connect issues using Kinnect for Windows v2

    I am running Windows 8.1, have a Kinect for Windows V2 sensor connected to my USB port, and have both the latest 2.0 SDK w/ Fusion & 3D Builder app installed. I already made sure I have webcam use enabled for 3D Builder under my privacy settings. Prior
    to installing the 3D Builder, I was able to produce 3D .stl files using Fusion 2.0. I installed 3D Builder and attempted a scan, but I got a "no sensor connected" message. I started up Fusion and I'm no longer getting any depth feedback from the
    Kinect to build a 3D .stl model. The image area is just blank white. I tried the Kinect Studio v2.0 application & have full sensor feedback - I can see a depth map and everything. I closed Studio & Fusion and reopened 3D Builder. Was able to click
    scan this time. However, even though I'm no longer getting the "no sensor" message, it's acting as though it's scanning, but it isn't... I mean, I can start & stop a scan via the scan button, but it's blank like it was in Fusion & isn't generating
    any sort of 3D model.  I am able to import the scans I previously made in Fusion, edit those, and export to my printer. But, that's it. Ideally, I'd like to eliminate Fusion from my workflow and just use 3D Builder. But now I'd be overjoyed just to be
    able to use Fusion to scan again. Is there a conflict w/ having both the SDK & 3D Builder installed? Please advise. 
    Thanks - Matt

    Yes, both cam & mic have permissions enabled. I haven't installed evolution on my PC. IDK if there's really a need, is there? Isn't it about the same as Kinect Studio? I mean, I see the depth map and all that... it's just not a metro app. I'll install
    it when I return home if that'll help diagnose the problem.

  • Using Lightroom for Windows 8.1 with Epson Stylus Photo R3000 printer.

    Using Lightroom for Windows 8.1 with Epson Stylus Photo R3000 printer.  From PRINT section, if I click either "Page Setup" or "Printer" I get the Epson printer dialog box, drill down, change settings- so far so good.  When I'm finished with the settings and close the dialog box (hit OK) the print job starts immediately; I never get a chance to hit the Lightroom "Print" button.  Question: does this bypass any Lightroom processing or control of the print job?

    Even if I just click the Printer button to verify my settings I should then return to Lightroom, and then click Print to start the job.  This does not happen, the job starts as soon as I close the properties dialog box.  Again, is any Lightroom processing or control being bypassed because of this?
