Here is how your numbers compute:

3. allocated shadowstorage 52.7
4. Free space (1) minus (2) minus(3) = 115GB - but if you have any
other disk partitions (e.g. a recovery partition), you must subtract
that from the 115GB . Does that compute?

I did the math and should be 135.4 Gb instead of 115 Gb that you said
and which my system shows anyway! I do not now realize where are the
135.4-115=20.4 Gb remaining!


Right, my bad. My numbers got scrambled. Forget the 115. It should be
135.4 - is that what is shown as freespace?
If your system shows 115 (or maybe I misunderstood what you said), then
the question is whether you have another partition on that disk - maybe
even a hidden partition.

Actually, it shows 115 Gb so I think somewhere 20.4 Gb are somewhere in
my Hard Drive ! I do not have another partition, is any other way to
find if do I have a hidden one? Is not the matter that 20.4 Gb will save
my life but I would like to know!!!
Thanx!

Open C:, go to "Organize" Folder and Search Options View button in
"Hidden files and Folders" click "Show hidden files and folders". It is
very likely that you will find the recovery partition D:.

I did it like so, however no new partition appeared! I don't know what
else to do!:cry:

Ya right. It is apparently not as easy as I thought (I am getting old).
Try Easeus (
http://en.kioskea.net/telecharger/te...rtition-master
). It is supposed to have a function with which you can unhide a
partition. But I am pretty sure, your 20 Gigs are in the hidden recovery
partition.
