Sir:
As you know, this was a problem from long ago that has regained
attention. Before this problem pushed me over to NTFS, I was in the
habit of booting with DOS and deleteing the files. There seemed to be
no ill effects.
I still have problems on my zip-disks, but I move these around to Win95
systems enough that the EA DATA. SF files do not become too large before
being deleted.
I did manage to get some >150MB EA DATA. SF files during some rapid-fire
building and testing work. That does seem excessive considering the
actual files on the disk were only 300MB total. How many attributes are
stored anyway?
