I’m sure any of you out there who do a lot of downloading, *cough*, have seen that little popup a number of times before and maybe some of you have wondered how to get rid of it, but never really bothered.

Well, you can either get TweakUI which I believe has a little checkbox you can click to get rid of it, or you can just manually do it via a quick and easy registry edit.

Just pop into the command prompt and paste this single line in. (I had to cut the command up into 3 lines to fit the blog, so you’ll have to correct that when you’re pasting it)

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesExplorer
"NoLowDiskSpaceChecks" = REG_DWORD 1

If you really wanted you can navigate your way through regedit, but this way is just simpler. Of course, the alternative is to go buy yourself some more storage. Space is cheap these days
