No room in directory for file
[Edlin]
(*~^\ ■ You tried to create or save a file to the root directory, but it is
either full, or you specified an invalid disk drive or filename.
Check the command line that you used to start edlin for an
s~\ invalid filename or disk drive entry. If your command contains
no invalid entries, you should run the chkdsk program for the
specified disk drive. If the status report shows that the disk
/^^ directory is full, and if there is still enough memory left on the
r ' disk, you may be able to create the file in a subdirectory. (This
is because subdirectories are not limited in size as is the root
directory.) Otherwise, remove the disk and replace it with
fi another formatted disk.
No room in root directory
(~\ [Label]
■ There is not enough room in the root directory for a volume
label
*m*. Delete or move some of the files from the root directory to
' make room for the volume label.
No space left on device
r*\ [Backup][FC][Restore]
■ You cannot back up or restore any more files, and you cannot
send any more output from a file comparison to your disk
f-^ because the target disk is now full.
You should probably delete some of the files on the disk to
make more room.
!^ No sub-directories exist
[Tree]
■ You have specified the /s switch, but the directory does not
(*^\ contain subdirectories.
No such file or directory
>—v [Backup][FC][Restore]
■ One or more of the files or directories that you specified does ..
not exist.
{**} *** Not able to back up (or restore) file ***
[Backup]
■ This message may occur if there was an error in the source file
^—^ or on the target disk
Use the chkdsk command on the source disk to see if you can
determine the problem.
