But If I Look at my PC, there IT tells me I have at the Boot Partition 206 MB free and at the "normal" Partition 29,48GB left
If by "PC" you mean Windows, then the 2nd ('normal') partition is not actually read by the OS, since it doesn't understand Linux partitions. 29,48Gb is very close to the 32Gb SD card capacity and it's probably the actual partition size, not how much free space is left on it.
I think you really have run out of space and need to delete some files from the RetroPie/Linux partition in order to be able to play games.

@mitu okay. and yes, with pc i ment windows... How can i go to the tmp folder?

You can use the File Manager in the RetroPie system to browse any folder on the system, but not sure why going to the
/tmpfolder would help. -
@mitu in the message is tmp, i thought there is the problem
-
@Brokenbalon so the tmp is full or something like that
-
@mitu and other question. In what folder should i go then and what can I delete there?

The partition is full, not just one specific folder.
@mitu and other question. In what folder should i go then and what can I delete there?
Did you add some roms/games files recently ? You can delete some of the existing ones that take a lot of space.
-
@mitu I addet the ppsspp bios, but roms arent there

PPSSPP doesn't need any BIOS. Regardless, you should clear some space on the partition, otherwise you'll get the same error again.
-
@mitu so i delete what?
-
@mitu maybe skyscraper need much space?
-
@Brokenbalon Skyscraper keeps a cache of scraped resources and this can gobble up space, especially if you scraped videos. You can clear that cache from the scraping menu in RetroPie, but that should be done after you've finished scraping a system (or more).
-
@mitu yes, i have videos with skyscraüer
-
@Brokenbalon skyscraper
-
@mitu so i delete the skyscraper videos and then it should work right?

No, you delete the Skyscraper Cache. See the menu at https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Scraper/#using-skyscraper, under the Cache options and commands menu.
-
@mitu ah okay thank you very much
-
@mitu IT worked, thanks again and sry for my sometimes dumb questions.
Have a great day.
