All the crashes are caused by error SQLITE_FULL. According to this the disk is full and data can't be saved.

The logs also complain that opening your .wma files fails with error ASF_E_INVALIDHEADER. Not related to the crash, but those files are either corrupted or not WMA at all.

So how do I fix it? 🤔

I'd like to know if that error is accurate and you are indeed using your computer with practically full C: drive. Because that will certainly cause problems for everything, not just foobar2000. You can't for example install any OS updates.

If that is the confirmed cause the easiest fix is to clean up space by removing unnecessary data. If you have no idea where to start, open Start Menu and type "cleanmgr" without the quotes, that will find Disk Cleanup tool regardless of your OS language. Run it and see how much it can remove extra data. If you have an OEM system your computer may have come with huge recovery partitions that you could nuke and expand C drive that way.

yowsa, there's your problem all right.  Some folks have single metadb.sqlite FILES that large, forget the Windows Updates and on and on!  Why not just buy a new larger drive, at least 1 TB--even SSDS that size are around 80 bucks now.  And if you want you can add a HDD for 50 bucks just to store backups on.

And there's the problem, expensive and I actually don't install my programs on C:
I will look where foobar is installed and try to fix it cause buying a new SSD is too expensive

If you opt for a portable install, you can put it anywhere.  Shell integration is a bit problematic, if you wanted to use FB2K as the default media player in Windows, but that can be overcome with some manual configuration.
It's your privilege to disagree, but that doesn't make you right and me wrong.

You need to replace the SSD storage immediately. You can't even do Windows Update. It's not something that can be fixed by just moving foobar2000 (Portable installation), it's serious.

You don't need to install a new SSD. The drive you have now is large enough for Windows and most utility programs you could think of. But you do need to make space on the drive because your system won't work correctly with that little space available.

Your crash logs show you have at least some music on the C: drive, depending on how much data that is moving them to another drive might be enough to fix things. Perhaps you have photos or movies stored there, those can also quickly fill up a drive.

If you don't have programs and you don't have usable data, then your drive is filled with garbage that can simply be deleted.

250GB is too little.
I think now is the time to act with an eye to the future.

Where DO you install your programs then?  "..and try to fix it"--you can only do that by adding more drive space.  You don't have to install a SSD, you can buy a regular 1TB hard drive (HDD) brand new for $31, below is just presented as an example to show I'm not kidding not as an advertisement:



And as Air KEN pointed out, regardless of where Foobar is you need a larger C: drive just to support Windows Update, etc.

While helping someone is good it's not good to give misinformation. The topic starter does not need a larger drive, 250 GB drive is more than large enough. What he needs is more space. And clearing space does not require buying new hardware.

Come on, Case, don't call it "misinformation" to suggest a larger (larger=more newly available space) drive as opposed to diving into "full of unwanted garbage", empty-the-Temp-folder type of stuff when we're talking about a single 250GB drive.

Installing a second data drive to store everything non-OS related (backups, images, multimedia, etc.) IMO should also be standard procedure, but most people want to install applications and immediately related files to C: where 90% of them default to anyway.

I have absolutely no interest in arguing either. But the topic starter's crash logs indicate he has at least three other drives / partitions since those are watched by media library, and he said he doesn't install software on C:. All these facts suggest that he has more space elsewhere.
Moving data from C: to any other drive is super simple. But unless you are somewhat experienced with computers you may not be aware how much crapware can fill drives up with nonsense, old backup copies, temporary files, logs, installers... Even OS bugs can fill up drives, Windows 7 for example had a lovely bug that its attempts to compress old logs resulted in thousands of large temp files until C: was full.
According to Microsoft Windows 10 requires just 20 GB drive. Granted, that is way too small. But for example 50 GB drive would be big enough for Windows 10 and to keeping it fully updated, as long as larger software is kept on other partitions. I have used 60 GB partitions for my virtual machines for years and they don't have any problems with space.

Roger that Case.  My fault, I didn't read his crash logs.  You would think people would be a little clearer about their environment in their actual post.
