We are trialing Windows 8 Pro RTM on a few workstations. Upon deleting anything from a network share (running Windows Server 2008 R2 with 'hard' disk quotas) it does not appear to release the disk space - this shows on both the FSRM Console
and the drive mapped to the workstation.
On the server itself through file explorer, the disk space has been released, so this looks to be a bug(?) with Windows 8 and quota management not updating its quotas.
Anyone have any ideas or have the same problem as this kills the idea of deployment across the entire enterprise for us (potentially upsetting 15k+ users).
Thanks!
