I have been trying to establish why by C Drive has over 220gb used. In the process I have discovered that FG is showing as 108gb. Could someone tell me how this can be be.

Perhaps terrasync'd scenery and a texture cache (if you've enabled it).

yeah, scenery stuff, OSM data for scenery, DDS cache enabled for speed, and whatever craft have been downloaded and installed...

I think there's some kind of "assets" or "resources" dialog that will show the utilization (disk space requirements) of $FG_HOME, $FG_SCENERY and $FG_ROOT respectively - however, I am not sure if that dialog was part of the osgearth branches or the photo scenery stuff. Either way, it's a pretty useful dialog and could also be used to run checks during startup
