Hello,

I would like to save my accounts from Money onto my USB drive (8GB). However, during the operation, my computer shows me a message saying that there isn't enough space on my drive (even though there’s hardly anything on it).
What should I do ??????

Thank you in advance for your responses.
Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0

    Hello, I have the same case and my conclusion is that Money only supports keys with a capacity of 2 gigabytes or less.

      Exactly, and thanks for the tip. I hadn't thought to do it for a few days, but I backed up my files on an 8-gig USB drive, and Money was telling me that my drive was full. I took the old 256 MB one, and now everything is fine. Thank you for your help.

    Hello Sistina
    Have you already made transfers on this key?

    Yes. I was able to upload my vacation photos and even some episodes of a series.

    Ok so I don’t see what’s shocking
    How do you proceed to make your backup?

    I go to file and then save as. After that, I choose "removable disk". That's when the message appears telling me that there is not enough space on my USB drive!!!

      Hello, try to save your backup on your hard drive in a folder in "My Documents"
      And then with Windows Explorer, you drag it to your USB stick

    Actually, it's very strange. I went to check what was on my USB key and I saw that I actually had a backup of money !!!!! Even though when I tried to save it, it said there wasn't enough space !!!!
    Well, the main thing is that I finally have my backup.
    Anyway, thank you for your responses.
