Hi Luis, My guess is that it's a file that has preallocated a large amount of space, but that has not fully used it yet. NTFS allows this. If you read the file, TSK will only show you the space that is used. Reading the slack, gives you the rest. If you run 'istat' on one of these files and send it along, we can confirm. thanks, brian On Tue, Jan 31, 2017 at 7:04 AM, Luís Filipe Nassif <lfc...@gm...> wrote: > Hi folks, > > I am upgrading to tsk-4.4 to benefit from the new support to slackfiles > from java bindings.
