The container files that hold all of the information for your compressed
drives ( drvspace.000, drvspace.001 etc. ) are hidden and system files.
So you might not be able to see them from DOS?  You might have to turn
off these attributes with the program "attrib.exe" in the
"\windows\command" folder.  Once you find these files you should back
them up immediately so that you don't lose them while trying to clean
things up.  They are big files so good luck.

You can mount these files from DOS by going to the physical drive and
then enter the following

cd failsafe.drv
cd failsafe
dosx

This starts up Drive Space from DOS.

Good Luck!
