When your system hard disk is running out of space, Windows will pop up a small message indicating that there is less disk space in your system. This pop-up message can come in handy but may even get annoying at a particular point of time. Aside from being annoying. Windows Vista's constant checking for low space uses system resources which slow down Windows. Hence here's a small registry tweak that can turn off the low disk space in Windows Vista.
- Click Start, and type regedit in the search box and then hit Enter key.
- Browse to the HKEY_CURRENT_USER | Software | Microsoft | Windows | CurrentVersion registry key.
- Select Policies key under CurrentVersion.
- From the Registry Editor menu, click Edit | New | Key. The key will be named New New Key #1 by default.
- Change the name of the key to Explorer and press Enter.
- While the Explorer key is still selected, click Edit | New | DWORD(32-bit) Value. The DWORD Created beneath Explorer, will be named New Value #1 by default.
- Change the DWORD to NoLowDiskSpaceChecks.
- Right-Click on the new NoLowDiskSpaceChecks DWORD and select the Modify option.
- In the value data, type 1.
- Click OK and close the Registry Editor. Windows Vista will no longer pop up the low disk space warning.
