SYMPTOMS
When you try to publish a movie by using Windows Movie Maker in Windows Vista, you may receive the following error message:

Cannot complete Publish Movie

The movie file cannot be published to the specified location. Verify that the publishing location is still available, that there is enough free disk space, and then try publishing the movie again.

This error message may occur even if the size of the movie is less than the free space that is available at the specified location.



CAUSE
Windows Movie Maker requires a minimum of 1 gigabyte (GB) of free disk space for the publishing process.



WORKAROUND
If the movie is smaller than 1 GB, work around this problem as follows:
 * 1) Publish the movie to a local hard disk drive or to another location that has at least 1 GB of free disk space.
 * 2) Copy the file to where you originally tried to publish the movie.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the &quot;Applies to&quot; section.
