Hi.

I've got a problem with game installation, the game requires about 7.5 of space, and on the partition i've selected there is about 55gb of free space and i still get the error. Is there any solution for it? I'm running on Windows 8.1 64bit.

Hello,

take a look here at the bottom of the page http://forums.ubi.com/showthread.php/686856-GRFS-intall-problem-not-enough-disc-space-Forums

If you don't want to open the link I'll just "copy" and "paste" from it, so credits do the author.

<i>"Often with programs and games installing since Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista/7 it uses the TEMP setting in WINDOWS to store the install files from the disc till it copies them to the end path you choose. So your OS drive (OFTEN THE DEFAULT TEMP PATH) must have ENOUGH FREE SPACE.

You might want to look into changing your DEFAULT TEMP path for windows and choose the standard HDD over your SSD OS drive.

Its not a ubisoft problem or GRFS problem. This happens on games a lot on Windows...
