cannondale Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 I'm using Autoit 3.3.8.0. When using DriveSpaceFree to get the free space of a formatted CD, DriveSpaceFree returns 0. However, Windows reports the correct free space in Explorer. I checked the function documentation for DriveSpaceFree and there is no mention of any issues with removable media drives. What am I missing?
Moderators Melba23 Posted January 23, 2012 Moderators Posted January 23, 2012 cannondale, Welcome to the AutoIt forum. This is a known bug (see Trac #1552) which will not be fixed as no-one seems to know how Explorer finds the free space figure. If you ever find the answer I am sure the function can be amended - so over to you!
