The Size of a Remote Share Appears to Be 2,147,450,880 Bytes if the Share Is Over 2 Gigabytes
This article was previously published under Q256576
When you place your pointer over a remote network share, the tooltip that is displayed incorrectly reports the size of the share. Any share that is larger than 2 gigabytes (GB) is reported to be 2,147,450,880 bytes.
To work around this problem, right-click the network share, and then click Properties to view the actual size of the share.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
