With me I have a task scheduled and it Eraser doesn't preform it. But the scheduler says it preformed the Task. I do all the tasks on demand now, and I check to make sure the tasks gets done.

Thats perfectly normal. But to cut the list to the minimum before you start your free space wipe with the windows Task Manager Kill all non-critical processes, leave eraser.EXE and leave Taskmgr.exe for last to kill.

Eraser works by making temp files, when the HD gets full you get a message there is not enough room on the drive. But don't panic, Eraser will then delete all of its temp files. What you did wrong is you should not have clicked on the free up unneeded space. So rerun Eraser this time when you...

Eraser 5.82 and Windows XP, I don't think that Eraser is fully compatable with Vista yet. I had hoped the Admin would answer that question.
