Hello Megan,
Thank you for your reply. I found that my other cloud storage gave me the same problem.. pointing to a problem with my PC like you said or with Microsoft Word.
I have increased my page file size but this did not resolve the problem.I found a Microsoft page which indicated that the normal.dotm file could be corrupt. I renamed the normal.dotm file to normal.old and start word again.
This resolved my problem.
Thank you and kind regards

Community ManagerHi there Franna , and welcome to the Dropbox Community! 😊
I'm real glad to see your issue is resolved- out-of-memory or disk space errors can definitely be alarming, so it’s great to hear you were able to get past that and save your files successfully. Thanks so much for coming back to update the thread as well, it really helps others who might run into the same message!
By the way, I’m Theresa 👩💻, one of the community managers here at Dropbox HQ. Since you’ve been dealing with storage and saving files - I’d love to know… what do you usually use Dropbox for? I’m always curious to hear how people use Dropbox day to day.
Looking forward to hearing more,
