problem not enough space

Hi just trying the trial of CXtoHD....selected a HDD with 900 GB free, use this HDD all the time ( even tried another ) but reports not enough space or access issue...any ideas ?

UPDATE....just looked through the forum and found another had the same issue, apparently you have to create a folder on the target HDD, the option doesn’t really say that, I am sure it says chose target HDD, I could be wrong though.....what about amending the error message to say “ ensure you create a working folder on the working HDD ( or similar ) this would help,others who are baffled and spend ages, checking HDDs making sure they are write enabled checking leads etc etc etc.....IMO

Thanks

Thanks a lot for your report!
Is it working for you now you created the folder?

Cheers,

Yes perfectly....it does say working folder....so can’t grumble really, just a mention in the error box as a reminder that a FOLDER must be created in the Target HDD.....as I said should be obvious, but it caught me out and at least one other person. :lol:
