Chony,
I read somewhere that when custom styles based on presets are saved to User, Ty2 doesn't save all the data, just a reference to the style and any changes. But when copying to an external drive Ty2 has to export the full file to make sense.
Since I was curious I copied 5 preset styles to User and the free space reduced by only 6Kb. When I copied them out to USB stick, Windows recorded the total file size as 325Kb, & size on disk 352Kb- ie. almost 60x increase.
Maybe that is part of the reason for some discrepancies.
Taking the remaining files on my User (excluding preset styles):
Total avail. 3.16
Free space 0.42
So amount used by files according to Ty2= 2.74
According to Windows
File size (total)= 1.07
Size on disk = 2.94
The latter which takes into account the inefficiencies of fitting file sizes to sectors being fairly close to Ty2 estimate.
OK- Pretty nerdy I guess
