I checked, and there was plenty of space on the target disk. However, does this operation use some space on the system disk, too, perhaps in AppData? At the start, the program shows that the lib has some 50GB; the export target drive has about 350GB free. However, during the very short lived operation something ate the last 13GB of space on my system disk.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Update: Yes, c:/users/%myself%/AppData/Local/Temp/calibre_1q_z10g2/dor8jxw9-export.db is the culprit. Is there a way to tell Calibre to use the temp space somewhere else?

Update: Yes, there is; CALIBRE_TEMP_DIR env. var.

Note to self: RTFM!

Thanks!
