Solution 1: Extend Partition to Fix "Low Memory" or "Not Enough Space" Error

When the Windows Disk Management tool displays the error "there is not enough space (or free memory) to complete this operation," it doesn't necessarily mean you have to close the window. Instead of deleting or resizing a neighboring partition, you can opt for a third-party Disk Management alternative software - tools Partition Master, which offers an even better solution.

This partition manager software enables ordinary users, even those without tech expertise, to efficiently extend disk space or add more space to the target drive using its "Resize/Move Partition" and "Allocate Space" features with just a few simple clicks.

Follow the steps below and learn how to fix the "there is not enough space on the disk" issue in Windows now:

Step 1. Go to Partition Manager, hover your mouse on the target drive with low disk space, and click "Resize with 1-Click".

When your partition is out of space and shows read, Partition Master will pop up low disk space warning and offer "Adjust with 1-click" option.

Step 2. Click "OK" to automatically extend the partition.

The tool Partition Master will intelligently extend the partition to solve the low space issue, and you just need to click "OK" to proceed.

If the Smart Space Adjustment can't meet your needs, you can also click "Manual Adjustment" to extend the partition size manually. Then, click "OK" to continue.

Step 3. Perform operations to extend the low disk space partition.

Click the "Execute Task" button in the top corner and click "Apply" to keep all changes.

"Not Enough Space Error" Overview - Symptoms and Causes

When you use Disk Management to create, extend, or shrink a partition, and you encounter a "not enough space" error, what could be causing this issue? How can you determine if your disk is experiencing this error? Let's explore the symptoms and causes:

Symptoms of Insufficient Space Error

• The computer displays an "Insufficient space" error, as mentioned at the beginning of this page.
• Your computer indicates that it has low disk space while attempting to perform a specific task.

Causes for Insufficient Space on The Disk

• Due to the limitations of the extended partition and the Disk Management tool itself, you cannot create a new partition on unoccupied space. Instead, you must delete the free space and convert it into unallocated space.
• You didn't utilize the memory efficiently and installed applications or stored data files on the system drive, causing it to fill up quickly. Consequently, this error occurs.

However, if you try to move unallocated space from D :, E: or F: to C: via the Disk Management tool, you will find that the Extend Volume option is grayed out if there is no unallocated space behind the target disk (which lacks sufficient space).

Fortunately, the tool Partition Master provides you with the easiest solution to efficiently resolve this issue. Revert to the first method, and you can now make wise use of the full space on your disk.
