Multiple file/folder attributes

C

Chaloots

One of my partitions (the old, primary 'C', formatted in FAT32) is running
out of space. It's
broken down into four main folders: 'All Users', '(my name)',
'Default User' and 'HelpAssistant'. On checking their individual Properties
the attributes of the 'All Users' is Read-only *and* Archive. This may be
due to a setting change I'd made and forgotten about. The same is true for
(myname), where the Read-only as well as Archive boxes are filled or
checked. Default User and HelpAssistant both have Read-only filled in.

My question is: am I prematurely running out of available drive space on the
two main folders where both Read-only and Archive are marked as attributes,
perhaps duplicating already existing files/folders? A detail view shows only
1.12 GB free on that 10.6 GB partition.

Running with XPPro on a Dell 900Mhz PIII with 512Mb RAM.
