Today found that there's not much space left on my memory stick.
Looked at a log file called Bootex that says that yesterday a folder with 3 extra files appeared that have used up nearly all the space.
It says they are invisible files though so dunno how to get to them to start with and also how to safely remove them.
Anyone provide any help please

You should never call somebody else a nerd or geek because everybody (even YOU !!!) is an
"anorak" about something whether it's trains, computers, football, shoes or celebs

How about take all of the files you need off of the memory stick, format it (deletes everything), and then put them back onto it?- David0

Has anyone else had use of this stick? It sounds like something similar to OFTE has been put on it.0

Try tools, folder options and then show hidden folders.
The hidden folders may appear.
If no tools option showing press Alt 1st.Helping the country to sleep better....ZZZzzzzzzz0
