Hi guys, I'm trying to transfer files from my laptop to my new computer and every time I try to move this file it says there is not enough room when there clearly is. It is a 16 GB usb and the file is 7.67 GB I think it has to do with the fact that it's a virtual clone drive file.

Put the files onto horizon or Modio and then save the files onto your usb from there.

It's because of the file system used by the USB which in this case is FAT32, it can only handle file transfers up to 4GB. So you need to change it to NTFS.
Here's a tutorial on how to do it without losing data.

If you are not worried about losing any current data on the USB.
- Go to My Computer.
- Right-click your USB.
- Click Format.
- Change the file system to NTFS.
It will then format it while changing the file system.
In either case, it might take some time depending on the size of the USB.
