When you go to the properties of a file, there will be "space used" and "space on disk". Because computer hard disk's clusters are each 2048b in size, and normally they assign space to files by clusters, so if the file is 2000b in size it gets 1 cluster, and 48b will be left over. That is slack.
I don't use Norton, it is a bloated pile ot steaming sheeeeet.
2048b?whether ntfs or fat32, that guy must have a very tiny logical disk size...
dun like norton..maybe can just google it.
