What to Do When Your Computer Does Not Have Enough Space for WhatsApp to Run

When I use WhatsApp, I receive an error message that says that my computer does not have enough space for WhatsApp to run. Then, I was out from WhatsApp. I wasn't downloading anything and kept cleaning up the storage. I also see plenty of space on my drives. Please let me know what is wrong and how I can get WhatsApp back to work. Thank you.

Hi, This error message "your computer does not have enough space" can arise from several reasons. There can be disk errors causing this malfunction. To identify the problem, you can first check your hard drive for errors. I recommend EaseUS Partition Master Professional for you to carry out this task. It can help check and repair bad sectors existing in your hard drive.

You can follow the steps below:

Step 1. Launch EaseUS Partition Master. Select the "Partition Manager" section.

Step 2. Right-click on the partition where WhatsApp is stored, and go to Advanced>Check file system.

Step 3. Click "Try to fix errors if found", and click "Start".

If there are bad sectors on your partition, they will be fixed through the process. If no error is detected, you can consider getting more space for your WhatsApp to run. From my personal experience, the most efficient way to free up space is to adjust your C drive directly. I used EaseUS Partition Master to extend the C drive before. I found it very simple to use and very effective in adjusting the space. If you have more space on other drives, you can make use of this space to expand your C drive.

Here is a guide for you:

Step 1. Launch EaseUS Partition Master. Select the "Partition Manager" section.

Step 2. Right-click on your partition, which has enough free space, and select "Allocate Space".

Step 3. Select your C drive as the target partition. Drag the partition panel rightward to add more space from your chosen partition to the C drive. Then, click "OK".

Step 4. Click "Apply" to execute the task.

It's very simple and easy to expand your C drive with the free space on other partitions. You can decide how much more space you need for your C drive. Then, your WhatsAPP can be able to run smoothly again.
