Anything is defined into the Exclusion list of avast?

Also, is the used space really in ordinary folders? (maybe System Volume Information takes a lot?)

hi, just to carry on from my last post, when i select all my folders in c drive, they total 26 GB, so this must be the size of just my ordinary folders

if avast has scanned 31 GB then this must be correct, even though my used space is 68 GB

is what i'm saying correct, thanks again for your help!!!
