Hi all,

I've found the issue here. The GOG client checks the default target directory for space regardless of the target directory you select in the install menu. Thus if your default drive is C-drive and C-drive does not have enough space for the game then it will give this error, not matter how much space there is on the target drive. Thus you need to go to settings and set the default installation drive to the drive with more space.

I've submitted this issue to the developers.

Cheers,

thanks mysticocelot, you totally saved me from having to download the updates manually wich can be a problem with my bad internet (it interrupts and then the whole dowload cancels, doesnt do that on galaxy client though) so thanks for the fix, now i can play me some of those witcher 3 dlcs i just bought

aannnddd problem persists, geez why does gog galaxy have such a problem with witcher 3? ive reinstalled the whole game a bunch of times and still problems


welp its fixed now, after uninstalling gog galaxy and witcher 3 both and reinstalling them both, 60 gigs of downloads later and my game finally can update

This may be a nerco but I'd just like to add here that the method Johny posted here also works for anyone participating in the Gwent Closed Beta too.

Target drive makes no difference on my Mac. The problem persists with every update - each fails with said error. Bug report created 2017-05-18 and nothing has happened with it whatsoever.

Same here. No idea how to solve it, as everything I try seems to fail.

I've had this issue on my Mac for several weeks as well.

I just noticed from a crash log that the Galaxy client was accessing a file that didn't exist, and was able to solve it by deleting the ~/Library/Application Support/GOG.com folder.

On the next launch the folder was re-created and I was able to update with no problems.

Same problem. OS X GOG version is obviously not working. All my games are in status: Installation Failed: Out of Disk Space. (more than 500GB free space on system disc) Please do something with that, it's more than 2 months now...

I fixed it by correcting the permissions for ~/Library/Application Support/GOG.com

which was owned by root for some reason.

Thanks! This solved my issues too.

I was getting this error when trying to manually scan a folder for a game that I downloaded years ago from GOG. Turns out, it was the permissions setting of the folder.

I'm still having this issue, nearly a year later -- on OS X, / has ~30 GiB free and /path/to/BigGames has ~3 TiB free. Yet, despite having set the paths correctly: update failed (drive out of space).

Hm, I suddenly got this out of the blue a few days ago.
I just reinstalled Galaxy, but that didn't help.

The problem seems to be that Galaxy don't have permission to download to the root of my drives. But it can download to subfolders.
I'll either continue to try and fix it or just live with that I need to have a extra subfolder on my E drive. The time for a clean Windows install is creeping up on me anyways...

I wish Windows asked for permission like Android when something don't have permission to do something.
I've had permission problems before were I just ended up giving full permission to everything to fix the problem, wich isn't a very secure fix....
