    HI mai_-35,

    Once you have deleted an item, you need to open file manager >Go >Trash the right click anywhere in this new window and select empty trash from the drop down menu. Also go to your thumbnails (normal) folder and open it then select all and click delete then follow the above. For some reason the Acer seems to back up all files visited or viewed to this folder.
