If you sent them to the "recycle bin" they are not deleted. You need to right click on the icon and select "empty Recycle Bin".

Good Luck

Some CD burners copy the files to the temp folder before burning them. I would clear the temp folders. System Mechanic should have an option to remove junk files - I would also try that.

Good Luck

Ya I use DVD Santa to convert to a DVD format and to burn the DVDs.I send all the temp folders to the incinerator,but when I hooked up my buddies external hard drive.verything went wrong.None of the files went to the incinerator or my recycle bin.But yet my C drive is completely full.Ive used my System Mechanic more then once,but still no luck.Im at a complete loss at what to do.Nothing I do to try to get my C drive down to where it should be works.Even when I use the disc clean up,and now that wont work either.Says not enough space....
