I get following message when trying to install Adobe Flash Player 10: "You do
not have sufficient disk space to complete this installation. Please free 5000
KB and try again". I have 70, 1 GB free so that's not the problem. Don't know
if it's a problem that my system is installed on the G: drive. (My harddrive is
divided op in 3: G, D and E) Also i installed an version for none-ie first, if
that's any clue.

Does your machine not have a drive labeled C: ??

An identical bug came up during development in which a machine that did not
have a C: drive would throw exactly this error. However, it was marked fixed.

So, if that's the case on your machine PLEASE open a technical support web
case and reply back with the case number so we can investigate further.

I've got the same issue.

Windows 2000 fully patched, latest version of Mozilla SeaMonkey 1.x, using an
Administrator account for the install.

I uninstalled the Flash Player 9 plugin before trying to install the new
version but the Flash Player 9 ActiveX control for IE is still installed. My
main drive is F: which has 20Gb of space and there is no C: drive. I see the
installer trying to use the correct directory F:\WINNT\system32\Macromed\ and
then get the same error message about insufficient free space. Tried rebooting
to see if it would help but still got the same problem.

I've submitted a support case so I'll post here if I get an answer.

In the mean time I recommend downloading and reinstalling Flash 9 Player from
the

I can confirm that in my case there is no C: drive.

I have the following setup:
A: = FDD
D: = DVD ROM
E: = CD Writer
F: = SATA HDD

Update...

This is a know bug. Was fixed in Flash Player 9, then must have gotten
unfixed in the player 10 code branch.

It's been reopened and I'll look into a possible technote depending on what
happens with it.

In the meantime, here's a workaround:
Get a usb flash drive and set its letter to C:. This will get you past the
disk drive space detection problem and let you then install it onto the hard
drive you wish.

Okay. Thanks. for the replies. C:\ is listed as an card reader. I'll try the workaround.

Just tried the workaround with a flash drive as C: and it worked.

Thanks for the help.

Bit more info that may help... I just installed the Flash Player 10 ActiveX Control. It installed fine with no C: drive, so this is a Plugin only issue.
