Any ideas to deal with this please?
This has been sorted in beta 2.1 :-TU
Actually it still happened to me for newest beta 2.1. I was able to get it installed. I hope this info can help with the future betas.
******Problem:
Would not finish install since “insufficient space” error. After reboot, CTM “partially” uninstalls itself (Note: since it partially uninstalled itself, I could not run an uninstaller since no where to be found.
******Analyzing:
No way for “insufficient space” to be possible. Have two physical drive with ample free space. I also noticed that every boot after it “partially” uninstalled, it seems it tries to do something before windows vista loads.
I checked my hard disks using vista’s “Disk Management” and found that both of my drives partition is separated. My main boot drive has logical partitions before and after my primary partition. So 2 logical and 1 primary partitions (logical makes about ~2mb). My other drive had one primary and one logical partitions(logical makes about ~1mb). I guess the extra logical partitions were made by previous OS or something.
I determined that Comodo Time Machine tried reading the first partition it encountered which is the small ~1mb logical partition in each drive.
******Solution:
I used Partition Wizard Home Edition 4.2 (Great free software) to extend my primary partition to the maximum (total hard drive) for both of my drives which get rid of the logical partitions. My main boot drive obviously required a restart for the operation. However, it couldn’t due to hard drive size changing during boot. My other drive extended its primary partition just fine.
I determined the cause was the “partial” auto-uninstall of CTM that left something at boot (before vista logon). I checked my registry using regedit and found CTM entries in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE. I had to change user permission to delete all the leftover CTM entries (gave administrator full read/write access).
I then proceeded to use my Partition Wizard to extend my primary partition on my Main drive again. Success. I then installed CTM with success. So far it runs just fine.
I hope this information helps.
