Is someone able to help me please?
I have saved my project and am now trying to export it so I can use it elsewhere, however it keeps coming up with a warning message saying
"error while writing WAV (Microsoft) file (disk full?).
Libsnd file says ""
Each time I try to export it, it will contain different characters between the speech marks.
I am in desperate need of an answer as I need this project on a CD in less than 12 hours!
I have updated to the new version of Audacity and have tried un-installing and then re-installing the program but to no success. I am using a Windows operating system.
Thank you to anyone that can help me!

Re: Error message when exporting file
That message sometimes appears when you use characters in the file name that your operating system doesn't like.
Are you using any of / ? * | : < > "
in your file name?

Thanks for the reply.
No I'm not using any of those characters.
The project name is 2012 Clubs Final

Re: Error message when exporting file
File menu > Open Metadata Editor
Click on the "Clear" button, then "OK".
Now try exporting again (and as Bill said, avoid using any "special" characters in the file name).
