TB portable is installed on a USB drive that is currently shared on the network between two systems. When TB is processing some message filters, I get the message (approximate) "Cannot write to folder, check if enough disk space or if have permission to write." However, if I latter run the filter manually it works correctly. There are several GB of space left on the USB drive, and I cannot find the appropriate folders. Actually, I can only find some of the folders that have been created.

Thanks Louis

I notice this is on a shared network.

Was someone else accessing one of the folders at the time the message Filter was running. If someone already had access to a folder that the Message Filter needed to access, perhaps this was why it could not write to the file.
