Sony Record Now DVD Software

I have been using Sony Record Now to make copies of DVD's. It seems that the software is writing a copy of each disc to my hard drive before copying to the blank disc. It must be storing all these versions of the copied files as my hard disc is now almost full, there seems to be over 100GB which is showing under my documents but I cannot find the files to delete.

Anyone had this problem before anyone know how I can get these files accessed so I can delete them as my hard drive is virtually full and I cant get rid of anything else?

Thanks

Ian

    See if you can find and delete them with WinDirStat; http://windirstat.info/

    Have you tried running ccleaner, you may find that its is not your Sonic Recordnow! that is causing the problem.

    I use Sonic Record Now and haven't had that problem. As suggested, try CCleaner to delete your temporary files.
