    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I came across an issue while trying to install Revit on a different drive other than my boot drive (C drive) where I only had 6GB free.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;It was what appears to be a common "Out of disk space" message, searches on autodesk's forums and other sites revealed that this is a common issue and that this has been happening for many years and for many products.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;All responses focus on the message that there are some files that are still needed on the C Drive, like temp files, shortcuts, temp installer files, temp internet files that need to be downloaded, user profile&amp;nbsp;files, etc.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;To make a long story shorter, after many attempts I cleared enough space, but I believe that there is some improvement on the and where the files are installed.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I believe that after the installation around 10GB of storage was used on the C drive.&lt;BR /&gt;I installed the minimum needed, and configured all (3 path configurations) to their equivalent on my D drive.&lt;BR /&gt;I used the web install and downloaded the files to my D drive.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I could not monitor all paths that the installer wrote files to because procmon crashed, but from what I could capture, the following folders and their sizes are what I would consider highly unusual after selecting the D drive for installation.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared 500MB&lt;BR /&gt;C:\ProgramData\Autodesk 1.6GB&lt;BR /&gt;C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Autodesk Shared 1.8GB&lt;BR /&gt;C:\Program Files\Autodesk\ 600MB&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I also believe that there could be some type of issue, where the space is not calculated accurately, even if there is enough space on the C drive for the files that need to go the installer may want a lot more than that.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Anyway I wanted to contribute with a bit of my time to investigate and give a bit of details for this improvement.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
