Downloading patches

Has anyone else experienced the problem with installing a game and having enough space, then when you have to download the patches you run out of space?
This happened with me because I hadn't uninstalled any of my other mmorpgs yet. I always planned on going back to them!
Just wondering if companies keep that in mind when advertising gaming rig requirements.

I know when I installed the Wish client, it expanded the file into a temp directory, did the install and then left the temp file there. I had to manually delete it after the install. Perhaps the installer didn't clean up everything and you are running out of space now?
The problem with keeping the patches in mine when advertising gaming rig requirements is they can't really see the future. They don't know how much space will be required in a month or two months down the road of the games existence. The best they can do is put the space requirements of the game at release day. If you buy the game 2 years later, you could expect the space requirements to have changed since then.
Well what I do is just keep the userfiles that hold my individual information so I don't have to re-set it all in case I decide to go back to them, and then delete the actual game and all its files. This saves a lot of space.
