Hey there,

 

I am facing  a very puzzling situation: my 8 gig USB flash and 8 GB SD card have shrunk to about 1.86 gig WHEN EMPTY. They have been shrinking for a while, and I have tried reformatting then all multiple times, and if I add info and then delete it, the size shrinks about the size of the info deleted. If anyone has any idea how to fix this, please let me know!

 

Thanks in advance!

But when I try to run it, it says "Permission Denied" I am on the Admin account, so this has never happened before. What to do?

 

Thanks!

What operating system are you using? If it's Windows 7 or Vista can you right click and run it "As Administrator" and see if that helps you.
