Hi all,
Very sorry to resurrect an ancient thread from 2012
however I was Googling this exact problem and this is the only thread I could find that mentioned it. I also had an 8XP program written in TI Connect CE that failed to load into WabbitEmu (84+) with the error "Not enough free space on the calculator", when that was clearly false.
I spent some time comparing the binary contents of the failing file vs working ones and tracked it down to the "version" byte in the file's meta-data. A version of 0x0B (or anything above 0x06) fails to load in WabbitEmu with this misleading error about free space. By simply changing that byte to 0x00, the file would load successfully.
I posted the full question and a more detailed answer on StackOverflow, at the link below. If anyone wants more details, check there.

(P.S. No idea why my StackOverflow post was downvoted. If anyone finds it helpful, please give it a vote to help take it out of negative votes.)
