.tar.gz cannot be opened in desktop UI on storage device because there is "not enough free space", even though my HDD has more than half a terabyte in free space.

[Seija K.]

After my PC froze and I had to force-reboot, the boot happened normally, and the file-system recovered.

I then deleted a cmake source file and then right-clicked the tar.gz file for cmake. The right click menu did not show "extract here", which was odd, but I clicked the extract button.

Archive Manager asked me where to extract the file. I chose downloads.

However, Nautilus then said there was not enough free space, despite there being more than half a terabyte of free space on my internal HDD.

Thank you for your bug report. Could you add a screenshot showing the issue and the 'journalctl -b 0' log after getting the bug?
