club Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Before I get flamed for not searching on this.. I did. And those people were told to check the read-only bit on the parent folder. I did. The parent folder, as well as the script I'm trying to compile are: -not read-only -have me as the Owner -Have full-control permissions set Yet I get this error every time I try to compile a script. I was able to just 2 days ago. I still have a script and it's corresponding exe in this same directory. If I rename the exe and try to re-compile the script, I get the error. Incidentally this is happening everywhere on my C: drive that I try to compile a script. But like I said , this directory in particular I can confirm allowed this action just 2 days ago. What gives? FYI this is Windows 7 Ultimate, 32-bit Anyone come across this problem as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Melba23 Posted December 21, 2010 Moderators Share Posted December 21, 2010 (edited) club, Welcome to the AutoIt forum. Your search was not that thorough - there are a quite a few other remedies that have been suggested in the past: - 1. Your AV might be the problem - try disabling it or setting an exclude option for the folder/file. - 2. Having an Explorer window open can also prevent compilation - but do not ask me why. Try those and see if the problem goes away. M23 P.S. I give you credit for not trying to compile an running executable. Edit: Although wakillon obviously does not!

KaFu Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Also if you're using Obfuscator and interrupted the compilation, Obfuscator.exe might still be running orphaned (check taskmanager).
