RE Permission Error For Deleting Files

Sep 21, 2009

I am concatinating a couple of text files and then deleting the individual files. (Not the output file)

The only problem is that I am getting a permission error "Exception from HRESULT: 0x800A0046 (CTL_E_PERMISSIONDENIED)" when I try to delete the files.

I can delete the files using the code below if I do not concatinate the files but as soon as I do I cannot delete them.

To concatinate:
Public Sub MeltText()
Dim SW As New IO.StreamWriter(OutPutFile)
Dim Files As String() = IO.Directory.GetFiles(StartDirectory, "*.txt")
Dim File As String
SW.WriteLine("Sw

Copying A File Into One Of The Program Files Folder Requires A Permission?

Feb 22, 2011

I have an issue with the Windows permission system. And every time it tries to do something that needs a windows permission (to be ran as administrator) it fails !

At the moment I was trying to implement an updater which should download a file from an ftp site but because copying a file into one of the program files folder requires a permission I am not able to do this.

VS 2008 : Replacing The Files That Won't Be Blocked By Vista/7's Permission Gatekeepers?

Apr 6, 2011

Im working on an AutoUpdate class for a small application I've been working on, and with Windows 7 and Vista machines I get a permissions error when trying to replace some of the files in the Application folder. The only way to get it work is to run the application as an administrator. Is there a way I can either attempt to automatically run the app as administrator, or a way of replacing the files that won't be blocked by Vista/7's permission gatekeepers?

Script File Write Permission Error

Sep 17, 2009

I use a custom tool to translate a flat text to xml text. I then create the file, with over-write set to True. When I try to write the text to the file, I get the error. The error says "Error: Invalid procedure call or argument", "System: Access is denied." It seems like the Create command is holding the file locked, so the Write command fails.

Running in VbsEdit IDE, I can see it fail. If I copy the text which is trying to be written, and paste it into UltraEdit, then attempt to save the file there, I get the same error This is expected, because the VBScript execution is holding the file locked. It should NOT be holding it locked for the script itself, right?[code]...

Error 70 (permission Denied) Opening A VB5 App On A Vista Machine

Oct 24, 2009

I have an old app, a VB5 front end with access 97 databases all works Ok using the ...program files... folders in XP but I now have a user on Vista and we have problems opening up, and I am braced for problems saving and closing down, if we ever get there.

I sent him a c# applet which found the users folder using string Dpath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.LocalApplicationData);

I have moved the data and all settings files to a folder C:Users[Username]AppDataLocal[My app Name][My app data Path]

The start up routine checks a settings file uses the path in the settings to re-attach the front end database to a backend database, test to see if the database uses replication and set the default data path for the rest of the app. we are failing somewhere in here I am sure. I have checked and there are no updateable files in program files

Have I got the wrong path or is there something else I should be looking for?

I have an vs2008 version of the app which is using a similar location but a SQL server database- no problems

Cannot Open Excel File - Error 0x800AC472 - User Permission

Apr 10, 2012

This is a simple fragment of my code:

[Code]...

The last line throws an exception "Cannot open file" with certain end-user profiles. It works perfectly fine when executing from an Admin account. I just cannot figure out what user privileges and access settings may cause the error. Note that it also works with some end-user accounts (not admins). What missing user rights can cause this?

I have some code that launches a .bat file. The error comes from within the .bat file, navigating to the specified directory."F/Program Files/ Tversity/Media Server/data/ if i run cmd, then manually navigate to F/program files, i cannot navigate into any other directory within program files.

VS 2005 Deleting Some Csv Files

Jun 4, 2009

I'm experiencing a wierd problem deleting some .csv files. Any .csv files named 1.csv, 2.csv, or 3.csv will not delete using delete() method of system.io namespace. if i do any number greater than 3 it works. For example, 4.csv, 5.csv, etc. works fine. 1.xls, 2.xls also is ok. The error it is throwing in my log is 'access to the file is denied.' Nothing is using the file. I even copied a new file into the directory and it does not work. I even created a 1.csv in a totally different directory with no luck. What is going on with this? Has anyone ever experienced this?

VS 2005 Deleting Files From A Folder?

Apr 1, 2009

I have created a project where I can attach files and I am displaying the name of the file, example:

Mytestfile.doc
mytestfile.txt
Mytestfile.pdf

I have the names being displayed on a listbox, so far everything is working just the way I expected to work.When a file is selected from my opendialogbox, the file gets saved into a folder under my local disk, so far so good.The problem that I am having is deleting the file from the folder.I have added a delete button and I would like to when I click or highlight one of the file names to go into where the file was saved previously and deleted This is the code that I have for the delete funtion:

[CODE Dim sFileName As String = "C:program filesSupport DeskAttachments" & ListBox1.Text
System.IO.File.Delete(sFileName)][/code]

The problem is that if I add the code to the clcik event under the listbox, it works great, but if I add the code to the click event under my delete button, it doesn't work, what I found is that under the path, if I am under the click event from the listbox when it gets to the lisxtbox.text it displays the file name, which is what I whant, but when i tried the code under the click event under my delete button the listbox.text is blank.

I have a series of large files (4GB) that when I delete takes a very long time. This only occurs on a USB drive that I have attached to my PC. If I do the same thing on the internal drive the files delete quickly. It is as if the files are being overwritten before being deleted. I am looking for some guidance or other approaches.
