| | Not enough storage is available to complete this operation-only onVista My application has a drag drop feature from the browser to desktop. On doing a drag drop, an export of file is performed. A progres dialog is shown and after this I get this error from OS "Not enough storage is available to complete this operation". This happens only on Windows Vista. The memory available on the m/c is large and am not sure what has to be done to overcome this. Please help. Thanks. |

| | Re: Not enough storage is available to complete this operation-only on Vista I have been frustrated by hundreds of similar errors from Windows Vista Business over the last year. My understanding is that there is a major bug in the memory management in Vista which means that even though there is a large amount of free memory, the system acts as if it was completely out of memory. Microsoft's de facto monopoly will no doubt mean they can continue to make no serious effort to fix this. <ram.gct@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:e238937f-533f-42b9-ad5d-9cede6b30059@xxxxxx Quote: > My application has a drag drop feature from the browser to desktop.

Thanks. should post in a developer's newsgroup to see where you need to change your code. If this is a third-party program that you didn't write, contact the maker of the program for support. It may not be compatible with Vista, there may be a workaround, patch, or upgrade required. Only the program's tech support people will know this.

| | Re: Not enough storage is available to complete this operation-onlyon Vista It happens for small file sizes as well.. I use a plugin to handle the drag drop from browser to my desktop. I debugged my code and could'nt find any exceptions being thrown as well.. Since the error is from the OS, just wondering what changes has been done in memory management side in Vista that causes this problem. Any OS setting can help ? Ram.
