Error: Insufficient disk space while extracting .Gzip file

Question

Hi team,

I have a workflow on which I'm working. I run the workflow daily but since yesterday  I'm getting error while extracting .Gzip file as "Insufficient Disk space - extracting this file will result in less than 10% (or less than 10 GB) of free disk space in your Alteryx temp folder."

I checked for temp folder in C:\Temp and cleared all data from there still it's not working.

Note :

1. My C drive has 9gb free space.

2. the .Gzip file which I'm extracting is around 500 mb.

Can anyone assist with this ? is the issue is relating to disk space or anything else?

@poojamate92 ,

The system requirements (disk) for Alteryx are:

* 500 GB — 1 TB free disk space

While 9gb is free, you have essentially run out of disk space.  I have been there myself.  You really need to address why you're full and get rid of data.  Even if you unzip, your Alteryx performance is wrecked by insufficient disk space.

Cheers,

Mark
