Controlling storage on WM6

[Guest sethman]

After owning my Pantech Duo for only 2 months, I now receive alerts that I'm running low on available storage. The 56MB of memory on board my Duo has been gobbled up and Windows Mobile Center shows that there's only 14kb of free space left. I installed a few apps when I first got it (AgendaOne, SmartPhoneNotes) but no large files to be concerned about. When I Explore the file structure using WMC I can only tally around 14MB of data. For some reason WMC does not show the Temp and Windows folders even though they are displayed through the phone.

Opening the Temp folder on the phone only displayes one subfolder - oPackage and it appears to be empty. How do i go about cleaning out the directory structure? And more importantly, why would this be an issue when I never had this issue with my SMT5600 that I owned for 3 years that had more apps installed?

fyi - I have not installed an SD card yet because I'm not using my phone for digital media.

Once your active sync is done hit the explore button and then open the MY WINDOWS Mobile base device. Then click on the tools button on the explorer page and open the folder options and hit the view tab and find the hinded files and folder section and select the show hidden files and folders and this will show what you are looking for.

Thanks. Looks like I needed to enable Hide Protected OS Files.
