Disk Full

The disk on my Toughbook is saying it's full, but I don't know why.

Are Exp Log files large?

Re: Disk Full

I was racing today after a longish race yesterday. Today,  I kept getting a Disk Full error and Exp would then crash.  Also, Lost my Marks file and my Numbers window disappeared.

My C: disk is full right up and all I use the Toughbook for is Exp.

Re: Disk Full

EM, it sounds odd.  Logfiles can get to a fair size, but a day's racing (8 hours) at (say) 1 Hz would be about 5 mb with all the variables I have, and that's hardly massive.
What's the partition structure on the laptop?  Are your logfiles being saved in an odd-sized partition?

Re: Disk Full

Check your folder with the GRIB files.  These can be large and when you've never cleansed this folder the volume might get high over the years.
