Of course not, should be ~500GB not 50.. You're going to need a bigger SSD.
Must be bug or something, just delete the file and see what happens.

We figured out what the problem is, and we will release a fix for this soon. Unfortunately, in the mean time you will have to delete the file manually.

They have their work cut out for them.. if only this was an age old issue with a known solution, like some kind of log rotation or something.

I didn't know standard text files could even be that huge. Isn't there some limit?... I mean, ~50GB. Geez.

I guess I'll just add this to my list of reasons, for why I'm not interested in using Galaxy. At least if I can find an empty spot on the list...

+1 for the mental image of the poor GOG employee who drew the short straw, having to go line by line through the 50GB file looking if any of it is helpful in bug fixing. Particularly in fixing the bug that causes 50GB log files to appear.

Why would the operating system arbitrarily limit the size of files just because their file names happen to end with ".txt"? Shouldn't that be the job of the application producing said files?

I seem to recall there was a limit, but maybe that was on older Windows versions. Probably related to the amount of text it could actually display and load into memory without having some kind of spasm. 50GB of text is a ridiculous amount, in any case. My entire collection of e-books and writing has a size of less than 50MB. :D

I recall Notepad having had a limit on how much data it could handle at a time. But, again, that's a limit of the application, not the OS or FS, to the file system, it's just data.
