After a hard drive crash, I re-installed the start up disk, and then used a time machine backup to re-install all my stuff. Everything else seems to be ok, but one of my favorite games gave me the "not enough space" message. I deleted it, and re-installed it from the app store. I keep getting the same message. I am running High Sierra 10.13.6.
Thanks for any advice.
iMac, macOS 10.12
OK, how much free space is on the drive?
Highlight the drive & do a Get Info on it... CMD+i keys/
Strange, try it in Safe Mode...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode?
What is the Game?
Maybe open Console & observe when trying to install to see if we get more clues.
It allows you to chose the destination, right?
The game is called "The Secret Society", a free download from the Mac app store. I've been playing it for awhile; it's only been since I had to re-install using Time Machine that it has done this. (Maybe that's a clue I forgot to mention.)
When I download it, it doesn't ask where, it puts it in my applications folder.
I've never used Console.
I have 239 GB available, out of 499.25.
I tried the Safe Mode, got the same message.
