I've only had problem last week or so. But driving me crazy. Trying downgrade to 1.11.0......

Only been using for 5 minutes and it already turned off my screens and gave me a message of:

"This can happen if the hard disk space is low. Please free up some space and re-enable the screens using switches in Home tab."

I know it is not a lot, since drive is fairly full. But currently I have 8 GB available. Trying to find out what the minimum is.

There is no official information how much free space is required for macOS to prevent from such instable behaviour. Based on our tests and experience, we recommend to always keep at least 18-20 GB of free space on your startup disk.

Hope that helps,
