Johnathan Pata Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Hey Guys, I need some help with this.. I bought a 1TB SSD to replace my failing HDD hard drive and I am doing a fresh install (no migration with any addons). I created a library and installed all my Orbx products with no issue but when I try to install San Diego International Airport i get a error that says " You do not have enough free disk space to complete the installation". I have no idea why I am getting this message since I have 859GB left on my SSD. Thank you for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Sawatzky Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Thanks Then there is probably not enough space on your C: drive to facilitate the install. Orbx products are downloaded and unzipped to your C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Temp folder and sometimes need up to 3x their install size before they get installed to the simulator location, then after the install is complete, they are removed from your C:\ drive. You can move the Temp folder to a drive with more space using the option in Orbx Central settings\downloader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok thank you for the help, i will check that out, I already had my C:\ drive so my guess is that it might not have uninstalled some of the old files from C:\ because I did not have this problem before.

I figured out why I do not have room and you are right, when i switched to windows 10 it kept the old windows folders windows.old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
