Well today I just bought a ScanDisk Cruzer USB Flash Drive.
I put this video thing I made on it...and it took up a lot of space.
Then I relized I added the wrong file.
So I just deleted it and added the correct one.
Then I noticed that I only had like 790 MB left [I got a 2GB Drive].
So how can that be if I deleted it?
Is there a way to permenently delete things?
Or will the space just keep on gathering up?

Well, this has happened to me often. First make sure you draged and droped everything from the stick drive into you pc trash bin. Then empty the trash bin. If there is still space being used then what you can do is go to accessory in the start menu then scroll over to system tools. Now click on disk defragmenter. You will see two options, c drive and stick drive. Click the stick drive and click ananlyze. Then click defragment. Wait a wee bit then It should clear up your junk.

Flash drives can be formatted in a fashion similar to that of a floppy disk or a hard drive. Insert your flash drive, right click on the drive letter representing it, and attempt to format it.

Hi. It's easiest to just format it. If you don't want to have to reload things try "Sure Delete". http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file/fid,22393-order,1-page,1-c,alldownloads/description.html
