I had one user come up to me saying they couldn't save to a series of shared folders on a particular server. Other uses were not experiencing the problem when accessing the same folders. After some troubleshooting I was able to determine that the use has these folders set up as mapped drives, however, each folder shows up as only having 74.6MB of free space when it reality it should have over 2GB. I also mapped various folders from multiple servers to the users profile and found that this issue is only occurring on the D: drive of this particular 2008 R2 file server. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to proceed, any ideas?
 
Have you enabled QUOTA?

Yes we have, but at 3GB per folder. Most of these folders are just full of .docx and .xslx files using up no more than 100MB/folder. Also, the puzzling thing is that even though the users computer says there still 74.6MB free, the user is unable to save. I just want to try avoiding recreating their AD account since this issue seems to be isolated.
 
can you please download and run Tree Size Free from Jam Software?

It's free, no installation required and it shows the EXACT folder occupation. Just to verify that everything is working fine :)

Let me know.
