Can't export files due to space check error

New Here ,
May 02, 2025 May 02, 2025

Lightroom (v8.3) won't let me export files. I'm working out of the local drive and have plenty of space!

I get the following error message:

"There was a problem with checking how much disk space you have free"

 

Any idea how to resolve this? 

 

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. This has been resolved.

 

The solution was to restart Lightroom when this error occurs. 

 

Nothing to do with OneDrive, any other application, or sync issues. As stated, the working file is local and nothing was being worked on off the cloud storage. Cheers.

Hey, @5andor. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll need more info to help you figure this out.

 

What is the image format of the original files? Does this happen with all the images? Before going further, you must ensure you have all the data backed up locally or in the cloud. You can log on to Lightroom Web (https://adobe.ly/3LUKpiM) to check and confirm everything is synced.

 

Is Microsoft OneDrive backup enabled on this machine? Please share the location where you are trying to export.

 

Awaiting hearing from you. Thanks!
