| | Vista gives "not enough space" error when copying to "Documents" I have a C: and a E:, C is vista, E is everything else. I moved all the files under my user directory to the E drive. When I access the documents directory through the start menu, the address bar says "> User > Documents >" I tried to copy a 15GB directory to here, It failed saying I only had 14GB of space. Which I do have 14GB of space on C: but not on E: I have 800GB of space. I verified that the folder is located on E: by copying a file smaller than 14GB to "> User > Documents >" and it ended up on E:. When I access the documents directory through Start > computer > E: > users > user > documents > the copy works just fine. Bug? |
