It looks like to me that you changed the naming convention in datapage settings and are not specifying a unique name. For example, if I changed the file name to be just PCDMISStats%.XML Windows has no way to tell the difference between files so when it gets handled it will automatically add a _1 to the end of the file name. So as time goes on every time you send a file it has to add another _1 to the end of the file. After 100 stats transfers you have a file with 100 _1 at the end of the file name.
Windows can only handle file names of a certain size and at some point you will get an error handling the files.

Now if your file name was PCDMISStats%DateTime%.XML this will produce a unique name every time and your problem is solved.

Go to the start menu, Datapage+, Tools, settings for Datapage Stats, and report back what your file name says.

You are in Data Importer, you need to go to "Settings for Datapage Stats"

What statement are you using in PC-DMIs to send stats?

Also under Data Importer (the first window you showed me) make sure that file monitor and file disposition have different directories. This may also be causing your issues.

I can't tell because of the size of your position but in Data Importer it looks like you have the same directory for the stats and the disposition. These have to be different.
