If your C: drive gets full to the point where there are less than 5 GB of disk space left, you will notice issues in the performance of TPS and will also be prompted with a Low Disk Space error message warning. When this occurs you will need to clear some storage on your PC following one of the 3 methods below. Alternatively, you can reach out to us directly for assistance by submitting a support ticket here
As far as the TrackMan system is concerned, there are 2 things that tend to take up the most disk space, the videos from Shot Analysis, and courses for Virtual Golf. Depending on your usage of the system and your specific situation, you may need to optimize the storage of some videos or courses on your C: drive. Below are different methods by which you can optimize the storage on your PC.
Option 1: Optimizing Downloaded Courses
- If you record video in Shot Analysis, then there are likely many videos being stored onto the computer that you can delete if you wish
- Close TPS if its open
- Open File Explorer on your computer
- Navigate to the following file path location. C:\ProgramData\TrackMan\TrackMan Performance Studio\Videos
- NOTE: If “ProgramData” is missing, click on the “View” tab at the top of the File Explorer window and check the box that says, “Hidden items.”
- Once in this folder, you will see additional folders organized by date. Go through the dates and/or videos to delete as many as you would like until you have sufficient space left
- Please be aware that once these videos are deleted, they CANNOT be recovered or re-downloaded, so be sure you are okay with the videos being deleted. If you want to transfer the videos to an external hard drive, you may do so by submitting a support ticket here
Option 3: Configure A 2nd Hard Drive To Hold The Space Of The TPS Videos
If you would like to configure a second hard drive to store all of your TPS videos please reach out to us at TrackMan Support and we will be more than happy to assist you. You can contact us by submitting a support ticket here
