How do I fix this?  I created some families and saved them to our network.  I wanted to move the files to a different location on the network and now when I try and save them I get an error that says "Revit failed to back up the file before saving.  Check the available disk space before proceeding.  Are you sure you want to overwrite \\ file path\file name?"  There should be enough disk space, I don’t get why it says this...any ideas?

If you are moving them, then why are you using Revit?.... Just copy / paste the files from one directory to the other.

I am.  when I open the files and save changes, that's when I'm getting the message.  It's saving my file, it just wont create the backup files.
