World Community Grid shows I have 0.00 MB of hard drive space available so it won't run any tasks. But I really have several terabytes of available space on every one of my several drives. How can I fix this -- I would be happy just changing the path the program wants to use but I don't see how.
I reinstalled but nothing changed. My machine recently crashed and assigned my drives different letters. But I do still have a C: drive. Honestly.  |

Depends on where you pointed the data directory to be during installation and how much you configured BOINC's allowance. BOINC data directory should truly have it's own subfolder, ideally it's own logical drive. Mine is D:\BOINC and the drive is set to use 25gb, BOINC can use 100% of that space, no 'leave N free'. If it doesn't it will count all and everything in the data directory and all it's sub folders.

Go to Settings, Device Manager, Device Profile and look at either Default or the Profile that you are using and scroll down to Disk usage.
----------------------------------------Mine is set to Use no more than: 90.0 Gigabytes of disk space Leave at least: 1.0 Gigabytes of disk space free Use no more than: 90.0 % of total disk space Write to disk at most every: 60 seconds   |
