Not enough disk space

Recommended Posts

The steam updater has just forced me to provide over 15 GB of free disk space for the 3.2 GB 1.60 update to succeed.

Sounds like you need a bigger HDD if 15 GB is an issue. Got to keep in mind that when downloading updates etc, those files can be highly compressed so Steam has to take things like that into account.

I faced the same issue this year. I was told this would work:

- in Steam, change the game location to another, more spacious disk ; Steam is supposed to use that disk for the huge installers

- update ArmA

- in Steam, change the game location to the SSD

 

I ended up assuring that 32 GB of free space on my SSD but I was told it should work.

 

Extras for hunting down disk space hogs:

Overdisk

WizTree (or the good old WinDirStat)
