The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: The customer gets the error message "Files Can't Be Copied. Disk May Be Full" when trying to install WordPerfect to a directory named X:\APPLICAT\WP51. The user was able to install the files to a directory named X:\WP51. It was discovered that the customer had created the X:\APPLICAT\WP51 directory through Novell's Filer and had used more than eight characters for the name. DOS was truncating the directory name down to 8 characters and was therefore trying to read the directory name differently than it was created.

See the Software Change Notice for the 02/07/90 interim release under INSTALL.EXE number 9,658 for more details on this error.
