Hi guys, My computer is getting old now (5 years old) and i need to start cutting down on the games add ons etc and i was looking at things to uninstall when i saw the Dela fleet CRJ-200 taking just over 2,000MB's!
Now i understand that Theres four aircraft in the package but is there anyway to get rid of the CRJ-700/900 from the package or should i just remove them from the aircraft list in the FS 2004 folder?

i've seen that with FS addons before...It's just, for some reason, reading the full FS folder and not just tha one plane

Yeah, my install/uninstall programs thing in Windows is a real mess. I don't even bother with it.

2000 MB = 2 GB...no way. If you add up all the DVA aircraft and ACARS you may get close to 1GB. You must be reading it incorrectly.

My suggestion ... clean up everything and keep what you need.
OK .. probably I went overboard but you get the idea ...
2 GB (even 2000 MB) for a aircraft looks improbable .. but do one thing ...
Unhide System folders and remove your temp files .. recreate your paging file and remember to clean up your recycle bin and defragmant ..
Use a nice little free tool call CCCleaner ..it will help you stay clean and light .. donate a few dollars to the guy if you want ..
Basically what happens is you might have some hidden files in there which are adding upto size .. also if you have deleted a few files and not "Clear Recycle Bin", the folder size will still show up as original .. Only when you actually clear them does the size gets reduced .
If this does not work, try the first idea .. it works .. always ..

It shows that my FSDT Sceneries takes up 46GBs each and the fleet 767 at just over 12GB. It's probably a bug, because that's certainly impossible. Infact, adding up everything it says on the uninstall page = more than what my HDD can hold :D.

Windows may not display the file size correctly, since for the CRJ the uninstaller is in your FS AIRCRAFT folder, and Windows displays the total size of that folder. I believer newer installers (although I don't think the CRJ is one of them) calculate the file size more accurately, and don't rely on Windows to do it.
The CRJ doesn't take up 2GB; at most around 200MB, depending on the number of liveries you have installed.
Cheers!
