This article was previously published under Q74648 SUMMARY
If you receive an "Insufficient disk space" error message when running
Visual Basic's Setup program, it may be caused by using Windows with a
temporary Windows swap file instead of the permanent Windows swap file.
MORE INFORMATION
Pages 520 through 529 in the "Microsoft Windows User's Guide" version 3.0
manual discuss Windows swap files. Permanent swap files are contiguous so
that your disk does not contain files in fragmented pieces, which may
happen if you are using temporary swap files. Temporary Windows swap files
may grow in size, which may cause the "Insufficient disk space" error
during the execution of Visual Basic's Setup program. However, permanent
Windows swap files will not change in size, so using permanent Windows swap
files may help to avoid the "Insufficient disk space" error.
