This problem is all over the place and I believe MS has yet to fix it, or even admit to it! Easy Transfer is pretty cool save for the consistent algorithm error used in determining the Shred Items. I used Easy Transfer to move users from an older W7 to a newer W7 machine. Both machines are fully updated The old machine had a TOTAL of 350 GIG of files/data on all drives including the system. In fact, as part of this process, I copied the old data onto back up drives in case something was missing and it totaled under 4 GIG of data. Well, Easy Transfer after copying the users also copies Shared Items. The total was 868 Gigs, more than double the total amount of files space occupied by the original data on the old machine! I killed it half way through after it started eating up the C Drive on the new PC.
Does anyone know what gives with those Shared items? Obviously, there is a problem because there are references all over the place (Not enough space, etc) with that but I have never read a good explanation or seen proper directions on handling the Shared Items option.
Any wisdom?
