Error code 0x80070052 "the directory cannot be created" bug fix

Error code 0x80070052

"the directory cannot be created"

Fix solution


When you place a certain amount of files in one single place in a folder or location on a usb disk or other storage location you will get this error. DO NOT wipe the drive, scan the drive, format the drive, or run any programs. When you place between 20,000 and 30,000 files in one folder you will not be able to place any more files or move any more to that folder or location, regardless of remaining storage space.

The solution is simple: just create a second folder and move about half the files to clear up free space. Move them into the folder and boom, no more error code. You will not be able to create a folder if you are getting this error code so remember to remove about 100 files or so, create the second folder, and then move the files into it.

Its not as complicated as it seems and programs to fix this error are nothing but scams and virus’s that will infect your computer.
