Tick chart filled my SSD disk: Is it plausible?

Postby arjfca » 04 Jan 2013

Hello

I received a warning from my PV that my SSD disk is full. MC is install on my c: disk witch the SSD disk. Is it plausible that using tick chart did fill my disk?

The last time I had check my disk, I had more than 50% free Now it is full up to the capacity.

If so, how can I reduce the space use by the data. I don't need to keep prolonged historical

Is it possible to install the data in another disk than the C:

Hello

MC not in fault here. My AV Kaspersky had filled all empty space on the drive. Did uninstall the anti-Virus and re-install. My disk as found back all the free space that it had before

But same question remain. Can I have my data saved in another disk than the disk where reside the program?

It can be done; you have to edit the registry to redirect the database to a different location.
There is a post on what to edit, but I do not have the link. You can do a search to find it, or wait until Monday when the tech support returns.
