I'm having some issues when starting FileBot and it seems to be something about permissions with AppData\Roaming folder on Windows 10.
I installed FileBot from the .msi file with an universal license. App has worked well but strangely it hasn't been working for a while now. Today I started investigating the issue and when starting the app from the command line I get the following error :
Code: Select all
PS C:\Users\USER> filebot.exe
Failed to initialize error log: No Such File: C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\FileBot\logs\error.log (Access is denied)
An unexpected error occurred during startup: Access Denied: C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\FileBot\cache\0\.lock
java.nio.file.AccessDeniedException: C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\FileBot\cache\0\.lock
at net.filebot.DiskStore.acquireDiskStore(Unknown Source)
at net.filebot.DiskStore.acquire(Unknown Source)
at net.filebot.Main.main(Unknown Source)
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app to no avail. I also reinstalled Java and there was no difference.
I can start the app as an administrator, but then I have no access to my mounted volumes since they are mounted as another user.
A Google search for the error was not helpful and in this forum the closest issue I can find is this one, but it is related to an install from the Windows Store...
Has anyone got any idea or can point me in the right direction?
Thank you very much for any help!
