Hi All!
After a big Windows update I can no longer create a Project in PCB Services. Error is shown in the attached Picture.
If I recall it has something to with the rights to write in certain folders. I can't remember the solution for this. Please advice!
Hi Markus,
This error message usually appears when there is no sufficient permission to access the Windows Temp folder. Indeed, this could be a result of software or system update changes to the folder permissions.
To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
1. Close all SOLIDWORKS sessions.
2. In Windows Explorer, browse to the ‘C:\Windows\’ folder.
3. Right-click on the ‘Temp’ folder > 'Properties'.
4. In the 'Properties' dialog box, go to 'Security' > 'Advanced'.
5. Grant ‘Modify’ permissions to the ‘IIS_IUSRS’ group for the folder, subfolders and files.
Alternatively, you can also run the following command from a Windows command line to grant the ‘IIS_IUSRS’ group permissions to the ‘Temp’ folder.
icacls c:\Windows\Temp /grant "IIS_IUSRS":(OI)(CI)(M,DC)
