Delete one or more file to increase available disk space, and then try again.

If you choose OK or press Enter, Cardfile continues to load. At this point, new cards can be created. However, if you try to save the new files, the following error message is displayed:

Not enough disk space save card. Delete one or more files from the directory to which you are saving this card to increase the available disk space and then try again.
