Hello,
On my app using CEF4Delphi and whatsapp web, often i'm receiving the error message below :
Your computer does not have enough space for whatsapp to run
An the weird thing is, i have lots of HD space and RAM available.
Is there anything i could chnage on Cef4Delphi configuration to avoid this ? Maybe a parameter from temp files ?

Hi,
That seems to be an old WhatsApp issue. Even people with normal web browsers get that error message.

Understood, looks like it's not a Cef4Delphi issue then. Thanks !

There might be many reasons: RAM running out of space if you are running many programs, your computer space, and cache data. if everything is FINE like it was in my case, try the below steps, it solved the issue for me.
Steps to Resolve the issue:
Keep the WhatsApp web open and the warning popup as it is (**Do not click on OK** or it will logout the whatsapp and you will need to login again)
1. Press F12 or right-click and select Inspect.
2. Go to the Application tab.
3. Under Storage, expand the Local Storage and Session Storage sections.
4. Right-click on https://web.whatsapp.com/ and select Clear.
Now click somewhere on the screen out of the popup. (Error message area/window) and you should use your whatsapp normally now.
[it worked for me after searching and trying several solutions]
Let me and others know if works for you too.

What steps can you take to resolve the "not enough space for WhatsApp to run" issue on your computer, as described by Munendra, involving clearing local and session storage through the browser’s developer tools without logging out of WhatsApp? I would be very happy if you could let me know, thanks
