Access to the path 'C:\' is denied.

[SOLVED] Access to the path 'C:\' is denied

Hey, I'm just trying to code a simple program that will create and save a simple .txt file but when I try and save It I get "Access to the path 'C:\' is denied." Can anyone help me with this?
Thank you

Try restart your pc, or maybe you added anykind of protection from your admin account

Try to Run As Administrator?

Nope none of those worked

but it's only the "C:\" folder I can't use. If I wanna use the desktop instead then I can

You have to make the program your making run as administrator not VB/VS

Google "VB.NET How to make my program run as admin"

btw I wouldn't use C drive as a destination at all "Application.startpath"

Right click on the program>run as admin> profit?

Nah admin rights don't work, and its fine

But now I can save in other locations I don't really wanna save stuff to the location C:\ anyways

Thank you all for the help

Thread closed then.
