Hi,

I'm trying to backup my database for my new computer. I'm trying to save that backup file to D: drive, but when I start the backup process my C: drive will go full. There is ~5 GB free space at C:. After I purged useless hands and exported hand histories those hand history files are now 2,12 GB. How can I backup my database? I can't make more space to my C: drive. Other drives has a lot more free space.

Unfortunately the backup process needs to be able to create a temporary file, almost the same size of the database.

And you're unable to choose on which drive the temp file will be created.


Try to move the entire database folder to another drive, connect to it.
If you can successfully connect to it, delete the folder from C:/ so you should have enough disk space.

In system temp folder.
By default c:windows/temp
