Kmuland Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 Why Microsoft designed a filesystem able to withstand 4 294 967 295 files when its dll are not able to handle the 1/4 ?The more one million files in one folder was on a small partition about 70Go. Those where logs files (about 1 000 new create each working day) stored there for more than 3 years. Nobody ever thought that they should need to be removed after 1 month.so what is the solution? I bet that servers admins know a lot about these problems.Use alternative file commanders instead the m$ crap? go to dos/linux/osx?What Pro users/corporations do to handle this problem?All windows releases suffer of this problem? I tried 2003 and its present too. What about these new 7/2008 OSs? For me they are just consumers OSes with tons of stupid visuals and huge in resources....

allen2 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I am a servers admin. I only encountered this kind of problem three times. The only solution, we came with was setting up scripts to clean/archive regularly to avoid the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
