If you get this error, you may have installed the kit without administrative rights into the Windows “Program Files” directory. The files are write-protected. To work around this issue, do one of the following:
- Get admin rights to the local computer
- Change the Windows User Account Control (UAC) settings
- Copy the program local file location and change the folder attributes to read/write status
1.1 Get admin rights to the local computer
Contact your IT team to get administrative rights on your computer.
1.2 Change Windows UAC Settings
- Click Start > Control Panel > User Accounts, and then click Change User Account Control Settings.
- In the User Account Control Settings window, drag the slider to Never Notify, and click OK.
- If prompted, enter the password and restart the computer.
1.3 Copy the program local file location and change the folder attributes to read/write status
- From Windows Explorer, copy the example project from the install directory into another file location.
- Right-click the copied folder and select Properties as Figure 2 shows.
- On the General tab, deselect the Read Only checkbox and click OK.
- If prompted, select Apply changes to this folder, subfolders, and files, and click OK.
