#STOP BLUESTACKS UPDATE HOW TO#
We can discuss how to evaluate how much space you do or do not have, but your app needs more for whatever reason. After it's downloaded, it then will typically overwrite the old app.

An update (of any app) requires a certain amount of free space to download to. You need to free up a lot more than 22 GB. I suspect that that disk space free requirement is not to accommodate the much smaller download, but to ensure that the program is actually usable after it is installed. The Bluestacks installer may be enforcing the above minimums to avoid getting complaints from users that Bluestacks is crashing their computers, or is running very slowly, or freezes. So if you have a 250 GB drive, that means ~ 50 Gb should be free, it is often needed for paging to disk, scratch space, etc. It is recommended to keep 15%-20% free disk space on a modern Mac.
You should stay far above those minimums. They are possibly restricting installation only to systems that appear to have at least the recommended resources available so the software can be used in a reasonable way.Hence the installer may be looking for 32 GB free disk space and 8 GB physical memory. Bluestacks recommends 8 GB physical memory, but even if you have that, the MacOS and other software may be using most of that, hence disk space is needed far above the 600 MB you mention above to run the software.īluestacks is gaming software and I expect that means its memory (and disk space requirements could grow very large when in use. For instance, software that requires 4 GB physical memory simply to execute, but needs to use 16 GB while running, will need use disk space for that additional 12 GB if your Mac does not have 16 GB physical memory available. One reason for this is that some software uses more than the physical available memory and hence has to page to disk. I am surmising that the installer is looking for 32 GB.Īs Ronasara has pointed out, a drive with low free disk space will stop running properly. The Bluestacks web site indicates that minimum free space is 8 GB but recommended free space is 32 GB. This is apparently a well known problem with Bluestacks, and there are many forum posts concerning this issue.Ĭan someone explain to me why I am getting the error please? Does the Bluestacks use a MASSIVE amount of disk space to begin an update, or something? Else, is it talking about me not having enough RAM memory?
#STOP BLUESTACKS UPDATE UPGRADE#
using Bluestacks, it gives me an error saying there is an upgrade of some sort, but not enough space on device?

We hope you enjoy using it.Hello all, I have a 2016 Macbook Pro laptop that has around 22gb of free space on the hard drive, but every time I try to open an app.
Tap on the Update button to update the app. Apps with available updates are labeled " Update". Tap on the Menu and then click on "My apps & games". Update the app: Open Google Play from the home screen of BlueStacks.Switch the graphics settings of BlueStacks.ģ) App has stopped working but it was working earlier.To eliminate such problems, you may try the following:
