I have about 60GB of space left on my CC storage. Today I tried to download large files (about 1.5GB-2GB) but I keep getting the 'download failed/insufficient space' error message.

 

Tried several times and gave up.

 

Anyone know what could be the issue?

ThievingKlingon, how much disk space is available on the drive you are downloading the file to?  Is this the same drive/partition that contains the operating system?  If not, then how much space is available on the drive/partition containing the computers operating system.

Hi Jeff,

I chose the 'Creative Cloud Files' folder to download the items to, so it's not a local folder on my desktop.

 

Have been doing that for awhile but only yesterday did I run into these issues.

Hi Jeff,

The 'Creative Cloud Files' folder is actually not on F drive - if you look at the image, it's on the same drive as my iCloud folders, so I'm guessing it's on the C drive?

 

I didn't know temp files will be stored on a local drive to sync each time I transfer files to/from Creative Cloud. If that's the case, is it possible for me to choose F drive for the temp file storage, or it *has* to be the C drive?


I am sorry, ThievingKlingon, but the temp files must be stored on the same drive that contains the operating system.
