Recently, I had come across following error message when one of the users was trying to copy files to Network folder. His folder was setup with offline files option so that files are available to user when network connection to server is either poor or not available. Error 0x80070718: Not enough quota is available to process this command After doing it bit of a search, I found a following solution to above error message. This is caused by Offline files. I have followed these steps on Windows 7 Pro 64 bit PC.           Open Control Panel           Go to Sync centre           Select Manage offline Files from left side column           An Offline files box will appear, click on Disk Usage tab           Click on Change limits button, change limit to required space.           Click on OK button twice. Hope you find it useful. Disclaimer: www.TechieTalks.co.uk does not conceal the possibility of error and shortcomings due to human or technical factors. www.Tech
