How to Fix itunes could not back up the iphone because not enough free space is available on this..



Mklink /j “original source folder location” “new backup location”
The Fixing part of the video is up to 04:20″ after that it is a segment of backup and restore
with iTunes.

I recently wanted to make a full backup of my iPhone
the iPhone’s capacity is 64 Giga and it is 60% full
when I tried to make a backup of the phone with iTunes
a message popped up saying that there isn’t enough disk space on the computer.
And the backup failed
“iTunes could not back up the iPhone “yorimpitronot” because not enough free space is available on this computer.”
I clicked the computer icon and see that there is only 15 Giga free on the c: drive.
But I did have enough space on the D: drive
There is no setting within iTunes to change the location of the backup.
(if the partitions are on the same physical disk
There are ways to transfer space from D: drive to C: drive) if you like to see a video about that you can write to me in the comments.
there is a way to tweak windows and make it save the file on another drive that has enough space in it using mklink command.
this works with iTunes and with other software that won’t allow you to change the saving location like the camera app on windows 10
that saves only to “C:Usersyour user namePicturesCamera Roll
so this trick helped me in some cases and I hope it will help you too.
