HARD DISK FULL
3. My Hard Disk Drive is full.
Delete backup files. Many programs save backup files. Backup files are a way to recover
most of your work should your active file become damaged. If you keep extra copies of your
files and have updated those files since the last time you opened them, you can delete backup
files from the hard disk to create more space for new work.
Empty the Recycle Bin. Windows 95 features a Recycle Bin. When you delete files,
Windows 95 copies them to the Recycle Bin. Occasionally, you should empty the Recycle
Bin to create more disk space for new files. You should always check the contents of the
Recycle Bin before you empty it.
Be aware of the Windows 95 Disk Compression Utility. You can use this by pressing Start,
Accessories, System Tool, Compression Agent, and then following the instructions. For
more information refer to the Windows 95 manual or on-line Help under the compression
agent.

FLOPPY DRIVE WON’T SAVE WORK
My Floppy Drive won’t save my work.
Is the write-protect tab on the floppy disk open? Three-inch disks feature a write-protect tab
that must be closed to allow you to save to the disk. The write-protect tab located on the left
side of the disk if you view the disk while it is partially inserted into the drive. If there is a
hole on the left-hand side of the disk, pull the disk completely from the drive and turn it over.
You should find a sliding tab between the hole and the edge of the disk. Slide the tab closed
to save files on the disk. [FX 10-49]

NOTE: There may be a good reason for the write-protect tab to be open. Perhaps a
previous user of the disk wishes to preserve the information on the disk. Check with
the disk’s previous user before saving your files on the disk.
