Hello,

First, I have removed the e-mail address that you posted. Please forgive me, but this forum, like all the Internet, is constantly trolled by spam bots and often they collect addresses.

As for your error, you have installed SBuilderX in a protected Windows directory and access is tightly controlled. Please try uninstalling from this default location and using a different and unprotected folder.

Best regards.
Luis

You can choose to install anything outside of the Windows protected directories.

I myself have Flight Simulator X, the SDK, and various versions of SBuilder on a different volume in order to avoid any User Access problems.

Best regards.

Yes, you're right. I always use folders other than "Program Files" to install my applications including Flight Simulator X and SBuilderX. I've never faced any such problem.

Is there any benefit of using folders other than "Program Files" to install the applications?

Yes, it is best to install applications / utilities via a 'custom' path option in installers, or from ZIP packages, to locations outside the C:\Program files or C:\Program Files (x86) folder chain.

I use a D:\SBX315 folder location. :idea:
