While I was using this RegEditor, my system reported that I dont have enough space. Now I have only 20 Gb of free space and I used to have 50 Gb. Come on, this is ridiculous! All of these files seem to be unallocated. When I try to create another partition, its impossible. What to do? How to save my hard drive? I still see some of these lost files, but I cannot access them? How to solve this issue? Anybody?

Well, something corrupted! I dont know what, but its certainly one of those system files. Its impossible you lost 30 Gb of space you know. Those files are still here, although you dont have access to them. So basically what you need to do is run SiSoft Sandra and read its report. It will tell what is wrong with your system so you can repair it. Are you using Partition Magic? It is great piece of software which can deal with these kinds of problems, and it can repair it too. Dont worry about possible loss of data, those files are still here, remember. So basically, you run Partition Magic and select partition repair option. What is you partition C or D? If it is on the system partition then you need to be very careful, and to make a back up copy. Run this feature, and the system will reboot automatically. Cheers mate!
