No disk space. Services Doesn't start

[Guest Ivan]

Primary disk, dynamic, volumes: System, Applications, Data, some allocated

space and a second disk mirroring all three volumes, and same allocated

space.

 

All system is crashed because 0 bytes free space is available in System

volume. Even delete unnecessary data, free space record doesn't increase,

still is 0.

 

I found a 17GB temp file, in c:\WINDOWS\TEMP\SAM2718.tmp that I can't

delete, "some user or application is using it". Neither a folder inside,

pdk-SYSTEM-2916 can be deleted.

 

I checked, security, so administrator has permissions enough to delete both,

file and folder.

 

No event viewer records in system or application logs giving interesting

information before file "modifying date". After, non starting service errors

appears then in event log.

 

After deleting unnecessary information, system was rebooted and, file was

rebuilt again, taking al free new space.

 

AV, updates is installed but no AV scan is not available, service cannot

start.

 

Any idea

You have a rogue application that claims an inordinate amount of disk space.

Reboot the machine in Safe Mode, delete the file

c:\WINDOWS\TEMP\SAM2718.tmp, then create a folder of the same name to

prevent the file from being recreated.

 

Before you reboot the machine you might want to install oh.exe, which you

can download from the Microsoft site. It will probably tell you who owns the

file c:\WINDOWS\TEMP\SAM2718.tmp.
