I was going to post yesterday, but I thought you had the issue settled with all the fine help you have already been given.

cosmo, I can verify this is a Windows OS issue as it has also afflicted my PC.

Do you have Windows 7 x64, by chance?

If not, no matter, but this is where the errors cropped up for me, and ONLY in the Unistall/Repair module where you are seeing yours.

I have a one terabyte drive, and several programs and subsequent content installed were reported even far beyond what your drive has reported. In the hundreds of gigabytes for the installed content. Your 68.7 GB (really 68.7 MB) is reported on my W7 system as 687.0 GB.

Now, compound that with several different installs, along with several content collections. What Windows Unistall module is reporting is physically impossible for the size drive I have installed. It adds up to a few TB over the 1TB of drive space available, and the actual drive information (where Richard showed you to look) actually shows the correct drive space sizes with only around 400 GB of used space, and plenty of free space to spare.

Rest assured, your content is not installing at an insurmountable state. It is only a Windows error reporting correct disk size usage per application in the unistall/repair module.

Hope this helps...

okay, have windows 7 64bit yes but then, how do I know how many space I have free because if I go to disc properties it shows me that I have just about 36GB free what can not be, it must be more

Will allow you to see where your space is going - I'm sure there are other tools that do the same, I picked this one up when it was recommended in another thread some time ago.
