Insufficient memory or disk space and Microsoft Word, the basics and the causes.

There are several reasons why Microsoft Word may receive the error message “There is insufficient memory or disk space. Word cannot display the requested font. “

Usually this is a corrupted friend.com.vn temple, a corrupted printer driver or an Office add-in.

I have already explained how to remove a printer driver in a previous post. Click here if you’d like to know how to delete a printer driver.

You can verify that it is a Microsoft Office add-in by disabling add-ins. Click here for a Microsoft tutorial to disable add-ins.

In the tutorial below I will discuss the possibility that it is a friend.com.vn file.

Let’s fix “There is insufficient memory or disk space. Word cannot display the requested font. “.

Show hidden folders in Windows Explorer.

If you already have hidden folders on, or know how to turn this on, you can proceed to the next step. Otherwise, follow the steps below.

Go to start and search for File Explorer.Open File Explorer and click View.

There is insufficient memory or disk space. Word cannot display the requested font.

At the right of the view screen you see Options, open options and click on Change folder and search Options.

There is insufficient memory or disk space — Microsoft Word.

Click on the tab View.

Scroll to Hidden files and folders and check Show hidden files, folders and drives.

Click Apply to save the option.

We now have show hidden files and folders enabled in Windows. We can now search for friend.com.vn. friend.com.vn is marked as hidden, so if you do not follow the above steps you will not find the file.

Re-naming friend.com.vn to friend.com.vn.

For the system engineers among us.

For the techies among us, I explain the steps below without screenshots.

Make sure you have closed Microsoft friend.com.vn to \%username%AppDataRoamingMicrosoftTemplates.Click the friend.com.vn file 1x and then press F2.Rename friend.com.vn to friend.com.vn you start Microsoft Word, a new friend.com.vn file will now be friend.com.vnart Microsoft Word now and check if this solves your problem.

For the dummies among us a tutorial with screenshots!

Go to start and search for File Explorer.Open File Explorer and then open the C-drive (OS).

Open the directory Users.

Open the directory that shows your Username. For me that’s Bas.

Open the directory AppData.As you can see, the folder is grayed out. That means that the folder is hidden in File Explorer.

Open the directory Roaming.

..And open the directory Microsoft.

..And open the directory Templates.

In the Templates directory you see the friend.com.vn friend.com.vn sure you have closed all Microsoft Word files and right click on friend.com.vn.

Choose Rename and rename the file to OLD_normal (.dot).

The renaming of the file is as a backup. If you delete the file you can no longer restore it when it appears that the problem is not caused by the friend.com.vn file.

When you start Microsoft Word, a new friend.com.vn file will now be friend.com.vnart Microsoft Word now and check if this solves your problem.

Recap

As I mentioned in the introduction. The problem can be caused by various causes, making it difficult to troubleshoot. Above is one of the solution, but unfortunately that does not mean that it also solves your problem.
