Check Internet - Hard Drive Free Space Low

I've seen the "Check Internet Connection" error several times on my offline installers and I was originally complaining that NI shouldn't try to connect to the internet with the offline installers.  But after some discussion I was told the "Check Internet Connection" is just a catch all error for NI Package Manager.  I've had corrupted packages from a poor download that triggered this error in the past.

 

Well today I got a new one.  My VM ran out of hard drive space.  But instead of being told that I was told there was an error installing a specific package, and to check my internet connection.  Internet was fine.  This was on the 2020 x86 offline install but I assume all NIPM packages exhibit this behavior.

 

Could NIPM be a little more intelligent with its errors and tell you if you run out of space, or if the package was corrupt instead of just defaulting to "Check Internet"?  Thank.

Someone else had run into similar last week. Maybe we should all go Kudo this idea and link it back to here.
