BlackKnight Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I just checked my MAME folders today.. to my dismay, my entire set was gone. Even my cabinets, screenshots etc folders all seem to be corrupted like that. Anyone have any ideas about this? Too many files in the same directory? Also is there anyway to reclaim this space (many many GBs) without doing a full format of the volume? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 You can't delete the folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackKnight Posted May 5, 2008 Author Share Posted May 5, 2008 I had to use CHKDSK on the volume- it changed each folder in the MAME directory into a 32KB extensionless file, which were then deletable. One defragmentation later though, I'm still missing about 35GB of space that I can't account for on the drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
