Not enough disk space to install error!

★★ Novice

So I have Origin installed on a secondary internal harddrive and it is a 1TB drive with about 120GB free at the moment. I have set the settings in origin to install to that drive and not to my C drive seeing as it is a SSD and doesnt have oodles of room for everything. Needless to say, Origin says there is not enough space to install and I know that ME3 only takes lik 15GB of room. It worked just fine on my old computer but will refuse to work now, giving me the error of "There is not enough space on your disk to download this game" (even though I do have the disk too) Any suggestions? I have already uninstalled and reinstalled everything so I cant think of what it could be!

Go into your Origin option, and then "Applications settings".

 

Where it's written "Downloaded games", do the directory displayed is also the one on your secondary harddrive ?

Fixed it, I reinstalled Origin and before installing Apex i chose the folder by pressing on Origin > Application Settings > Installs and Saves .

Only after configuring this i could download the game.

Hope it helps

FIXED!!!!!!   I have more than one hard drive and I tried EVERYTHING multiple times.  Low and behold the entire problem was that my D: drive was FAT32 file system instead of NTFS.  After converting the disk (instructions can be found in a google search) and rebooting, the game finished downloading and everything works great!  Hope this helps!
