I had this exact same problem a few days ago. After WM5 upgrade, and 2 days of getting all my apps installed, customizing, etc it was time for a backup.. but I had over 200 GBs to backup it said!

There was tons of folders and files in the volatile dir, some with HUGE sizes, some even reported negative sizes. All with weird characters in the file/folder names.

I looked around for "scandisk" type apps. sktools, pocket mechanic, and a few others had scandisk tools for sd and cf cards, but no app had any built-in storage scandisk. At least none I could find.

The only solution I could find was a hard-reset. Then resync your outlook items and reinstall apps. Hopefully there is an easier solution sombody can provide.
