Disk space reclaiming doesn't work this way... by IByte2003-11-06 15:40:42
  When you delete files in Windows by LurkerMo 2003-11-06 16:02:18
- not sure if this is true in '95, but all others after that - they actually get 'saved' to the Recycle Bin. Hence they aren't actually gone, just relocated.

You have to take out the trash - erm, empty the recycle bin - to actually reclaim disk space.
