[HELP] Strange files using all RAM-memory!! - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

I suddenly noticed that I only had about 1MB free program memory left to play with (when I usually have about 15MB). I searched the whole memory for large files and find these in the Windows folder:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
They do totally use up ~20MB!
I can also see that they were created on the 15th January (yesteday) thus I'm quite sure it has to be these file that caused my memory loss.
The files are not able to delete.
Does someone have a clue of where the files came from and what to do to get ried of them?
Help would be very much appreciated.

AFAIK the files are related to Pocket Outlook.
These files should be maintained by Pocjet Outlook as well
Tried a soft-reset?
Have you restored any backup or something?
I also noticed on your screenshot that the files are double as well, one with 2,71MB size and one with 2,62KB????

The are _not_ using your memory. They are Pocket Outlook databases and i have no idea why OS shows it (another bug in WM2003 for XDA?) but if you do a hard reset and sync, you'll have these files, BUT you'll have allmost all avaible memory. So they are just showing these big sizes but they're not - you shouldnt care about it .

I removed all my programs (installed on SD-card) before I would do a hardreset and then my old ~15MB memory was back(?) I reinstalled the programs and the memory is as high as is were before
Conclusion: Something must have went wrong when installing a program to the SD-card
Thanks for the help, though. Now I know that those files I found are not evil.

it's not a 2003 bug because 2002 showed them aswell

[Q] Loss of Program Files directories from the SD card

Last night, I noticed the icons on my Cookies Home Tab all changed to indicate there was no program attached for all programs installed to my SD card. When selecting, I got the standard certificate/missing component message. On inspection, the Program Files directory on my SD card was empty. Re-installing applications allowed them to work for one attempt (loaded in memory?) but failed after that - none of them showed up in my Program Files directory. The only way I could get everything working again was to rename the Program Files dir and allow the installation of programs to create a new one, then reinstall my apps. Everything is fine now. Strange thing is that it was only the Program Files directory that was corrupted/cleared, the rest of the SD card contents were and still are fine. I have since deleted the problem directory.
Has anyone else experienced this? I recently installed Egress, the RSS reader and have been refreshing that alot every day (although the RSS contents are saved to another directory on the SD, which was kept in tact). The last app I used before the loss (I think) was Comic Reader Mobi - though I may have refreshed my RSS feeds after that.
This is very worrying - could I have a virus or something? I have since backed up my Program Files dir for easy restoration should it happen again. But WILL it happen again? Could my SD card be the problem (8GB MicroSD HC)?
Any help is much appreciated, thanks!
Bump!
Any thoughts from anyone on this?

[Q] Free space allocation on Mozart

Howdy,
can someone briefly explain space allocation on the mozart, and tell me how to get more...?
I've set the reserved for ther PC space setting in Zune to be 0%, yet I still seem to have nearly 900MB reserved.
In total only have around 4 GB of my device available to store music on.... surely Windows Phone 7 OS idoesn't take up the remaining 1.8GB in size?!? It's listed as "Free Space", but doesn't seem to be available to me!
Please see attached for current status - are there any tools to examine / free up space? It was only flashed last week, and updated to latest build.
Thanks,
Dom

this usually happens when you connect your phone to multiple computes (Even if it is just for charging)
The only way to free the space is to hardreset the phone..
I know it is dumb but I had to do it
thanks for the reply, but you are kidding me right?
simply charging the phone in a different PC, without synching can do this?? wow!
I've only just got the thing setup how I like it, all email and everything synched, apps installed etc.
And with no way to backup everything I have to reset and start over again..!>!?!?
MS have so nearly a done a good job with WP7, but i keep finding major flaws in their thinking that are beginning to outweigh its' slickness...
(no drag and drop - zune sync only - no phone backup a la SPB - no outlook sync)
Anyone else any ideas how I can reclaim the 1.8GB "free" space?

Internal Storage limited to 1,3G from 16G

Greetings people,
I own a Lenovo k50 t (a7000) and i recently took it to a phone "service" shop, if i can call it that way, to install a add less ROM.
Said and done, i leave my phone there and return a few hours later to pick it up, everything seemed fine till i wanted to install a new app.
I got a error message telling me i had insufficient space, which is strange since it had a fresh OS on it, so i decided to check the storage space details
and to my amazement it showed me i had 1,3 Gigs total internal Memory from wich 1,2 G was used by the OS. I used ES File Explorer to look up the storage details.
Then i did the same thing using the storage details tab from the OS "settings" window and it showed 16Gigs of wich 14,5 Gigs being "OS Used".
I got a feeling that the partitions got damaged or something like that.
I already tried formating everything via CWM and reinstaling a new software, it worked but the partition was still the same size, 1.3 Gigs.
Could anyone help me out please?
Thanks in advance,
Mike.

I took it back to the service and the guy managed to fix it.
He wouldn't tell me how tough.
Im guessing the partitions were screwed up and he rewrote those.

New Phone - Mysterious Files in Download Folder

Hi everyone, I just got a new XZ1 today (purchased from recommended Sony retailer as new), but I noticed some unknown files in the downloads folder I'm worried about, has anybody else noticed these or know what they are?
File list:
rce_plugin_string_resource_pt_BR.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_fr_FR.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_de_DE.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_en_US.test.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_it_IT.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_es_ES.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_cz_CZ.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_ja_JP.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_v2_TYPO_TEST.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_zh_CN.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_nl_NL.json.min
CS_JIT_Animation.mp4
jit_cs_positive_preview.png
Opening one of the files in VSCode, this is what the file looks like:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I'm worried about "rce" since that seems eerily close to remote code execution.
Any advice very much appreciated.
I just found the exact same files in the download directory of an old Verizon Ellipsis tablet I just reset and renewed a few days ago. It is running 5.1.1 Lollipop
Did you find any info on this? Thx!
Bump! Found this on a phone that was purchased/reset a few days ago. BB Key2 on android 8.1.0
Files only show up when i insert a USB drive and open the file copy android native UI. Does not show up on ghostcommander unless i move the files to a new directory (but then stupid android UI deletes and recreates the file, losing all original metadata such as permission, owner etc... and the useless android UI where i can see/copy the files, do not show permission/owner)

Question Back up with Macrium Reflect free on Win11

Hello, I bought a new laptop, installed windows 11 and all the programs I need, the computer doesn't need anything else and from now on I would like to save the system and all the programs installed in case of unexpected events.
I downloaded Macrium Reflect free (it's in Italian but I couldn't choose at the time of installation).
Now I'll explain my doubts; I have a 1tb external hard drive, with Mini Partition Tools I created two partitions, one of 100 gb in which I thought of saving the data and the other of about 800 gb that I would like to use to keep the games and programs that I rarely use, in your opinion is it ok to create a backup in a partition of an external hdd? Can it work? Can I format a pc by making it choose the iso from a hdd partition?
I created a backup and had Macrium verify the iso, it says everything is fine.
Another question, in the Macrium screenshot you can see the ssd on which the operating system is installed, the first one in the list (the one with the ticks), when you do a backup, you have to include all those partitions or you only need the one where the operating system is installed?
Third and last question, I'm doing all this in case I have problems with the PC and I want to format and re-install everything, to do this, what should I do? A backup? Create a system image ? Or other options?
Thanks to anyone willing to read and help me out.
