I mean, not through installation of programs, but through stupid mistakes/accidents/intentional actions

The biggest Files that I've ever created in windows was when I converted some music files(8 in all) in Winamp and forgot to specific/put a stop to the music files(they loop) and the total was 2.71 Gigabytes

Well, one program I tried to update, which was a RPG2K Character Maker, glitched up on the update and then took up whatever space I had left, which was around 30+ Gigabytes.
I just simply deleted the folder.

When making movies with my video capture card, 6 minutes of video = 1 gig of hard drive. I always deleted them afterward (so I have no idea how far I reached), but I think I once filmed a battle with Evil Ed in Lomax that was about 2 gigs.


Where are these lemmings going? The Super Nintendo Super Shire! Hop in line and follow them there!

One time I downloaded MAME onto an older PC. I must've done something to it, because the files manager said that MAME had ballooned into 980 gigabytes.
Really odd, considering the PC's hard drive only held 20 gigabytes.

O_o Nothing compared to you lot!! I once tried to update all the MS Windows security stuff at once and crashed the computer many times. I discovered there's a reason why you click the auto-update feature.
