WOR Flasher errors when i try to create Windows 11 on 250GB SSD about wor-flasher HOT 7 CLOSED

The script acknowledges that there is enough storage prior to starting the build

The error indicates that there is insufficient storage to create the Windows image???, but the selected drive is far larger than i need, i get the same issue if i try to load image onto a USB stick 32Gbyte free.

Exactly what error do you get?

Not only does your destination drive need to be a certain size, but you also need a certain amount of free space to download files to.

OK, Thanks that was the key info.
Now I am running Windows 11 on the RPi4..thank You

Could I suggest that for other users like myself, it may be a good idea to add a little more info in the error message into what exactly the problem really is? . . . I thought I had read all the relevant documentation and I could not find any other reference in the documentation in relation to minimum space required in order to actually download and create the image....

Thank You Again.....

I had intended for the error to be self-explanatory when it said Your system does not have enough usable disk space to generate a Windows image.

Would it be clearer if I changed the error to:

Your system needs 11.8GB of free space to download the Windows components to.
If your sd card is too small to do this, you can set the DL_DIR variable to a mounted drive with sufficient space. (Must be an Ext4 partition)

Hello,

Yes i believe that would be more informative, and for me, if I had read that I would have had clear direction on how to resolve it...

But as I said I am not an expert so others may believe your initial message is fine.

Thanks
