If you are low on disk space then it’s highly probable that TReK cannot create the temporary files it needs to perform its work. If you’ve read the TReK Getting Started Guide, then you know that TReK creates a directory called “tmp” which it uses to hold the temporary files. In TReK Release 1.1, this directory was always created in the Application Data folder for the user account (most of the time that was on C drive). If TReK is unable to create the temporary files in this location because of low disk space, then the function TReK is trying to perform will fail. With the release of TReK Release 1.1 Service Pack 1 you can now control where the tmp directory gets created. For information on how to tell TReK where to create the tmp directory please see: FAQTReKTmpDirectory.pdf.
