Postup řešení

  1. 1 First, try to reduce the metadata size. If you're dealing with a specific file, right-click it, select 'Properties', and go to the 'Details' tab. Remove any unnecessary metadata like tags, comments, or custom properties. Click 'OK' to save.
  2. 2 Check your environment variables: Press Windows key + R, type 'sysdm.cpl' and press Enter. Go to the 'Advanced' tab and click 'Environment Variables'. Look for any variables with extremely long values. If you find any, edit them to be shorter or remove them if they're not needed. Long environment variables can cause this error.
  3. 3 Run Disk Cleanup: Press Windows key + R, type 'cleanmgr' and press Enter. Select your system drive (usually C:) and click OK. Check all items and click OK to delete temporary files. This can free up space and reduce metadata overhead.
  4. 4 If the error occurs in a specific application, try reinstalling that application. Sometimes the app's metadata gets corrupted.
  5. 5 If the error persists, use the Command Prompt to check the file system: Press Windows key + R, type 'cmd', then press Ctrl + Shift + Enter. Type 'chkdsk C: /f' and press Enter. You may need to restart to let it run. This checks for file system errors that might be causing metadata issues.
