View 4 RepliesSystem.UnauthorizedAccessException was unhandled. I'm following motcom's tutorial on creating a simple directory explorer, and everytime I try to expand I get the error above. How can I be getting that error on my own computer ? I'm on my administrator account, it happens even if I compile it and run it as administrator also. What could be causuing this ?

It seems like FileSystem.GetFiles() is unable to recover from the UnauthorizedAccessException exception that .Net triggers when trying to access an off-limit directory.In this case, does it mean this class/method isn't useful when scanning a whole drive and I should use some other solution (in which case: Which one?)? Here's some code to show the issue:
Private Sub bgrLongProcess_DoWork(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs) Handles bgrLongProcess.DoWork

I'm using My.Computer.Filesystem.WriteAllBytes to write out an executable stored in my application's resources to it's startup directory. After running the executable, I then delete it. Everything works fine; however, I'll randomly get an UnauthorizedAccessException for no reason. After getting the exception, I can manually delete the file with no problem. Here's the full code:
' Convert MP3
' First, copy out converter
Dim Path = New IO.FileInfo(SoundPath)
[code]....
What perplexes me is that I literally just wrote out the executable, and nothing else could possibly be using it. I've checked the file attributes and it's not read-only. My application is also running as an administrator.
I am using VB.NET 2008 Express Edition to access Serial Port which is a USB to Serial port. Since this is removable, the app user can disconnect it at any time in app. I am getting an unhandled exception when I remove the USB Serial Port.
View 2 RepliesMy application needs to change the default signature of outlook and I need to change the value of a registry key for this. But I get a error that I probaly don't have enough permissions. Strange thing is, if I change it manually it doesn't complain.
Error:System.UnauthorizedAccessException : Cannot write to the registry key.
Happens at the 2nd line:

In my VB.NEt 2008 application, I am frequently creating and killing the file Fileopen and Kill(Multiple times ). It was working fine with Windows XP.

I want to be able to create a username and password but when i debug and click 'Create User' an error pops up saying 'UnauthorizedAccessException was unhandled' with the path to the debug file, not the path i want the user information to be stored.
If My.Computer.FileSystem.DirectoryExists("C:/Documents and Settings/All Users/Start Menu/Programs/Login Text To Speech") = True Then
Else
My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory("C:/Documents and Settings/All Users/Start Menu/Programs/Login Text To Speech")
End If
If UsernameBox.Text = ("") Then[code]......
I knew that what I have doesn't create the username and password in the same .txt file. when i create a new user they both get thier own file with no text in them. When I tried to get the streamreader to access the previously created accounts, the only password acceptable is 'password'. I think it only accepts 'password' because 'Password.Read()' and it only created a .txt file Password when I typed it in. (I can't be for sure though). The top code is my Create User and the bottom code is my OK(accept created user).

I coded a very small website bot in C# using the default WebBrowser control. Actually almost everything is working the way it is supposed to work, yet I seem to have problems with the very last step of my automation.
The website was built using several iframes. This isn't much of a big deal as I simply access those frames and their elements using
webBrowser1.Document.Window.Frames[0].Document.GetElementById("element").InvokeMember("click");
This however does not work when the source of the IFRAME is being hosted on a different domain than the actual website. As I searched the internet for an answer to my problem I stumbled across an MSDN article mentioning this specific problem and they were referring to safety measures against cross site scripting which might be the reason for this error.
I couldn't really find a way of disabling this feature so I moved on and decided to recode everything to work with geckofx-12 instead of the default (IE based) web browser control, yet I ran into similar issues...
My question is: Is there any way I can bypass this annoying behaviour? I don't really care about security concerns or on whether geckofx or the default web browser control is being used, I would just like to programmatically access the elements of a site which is being hosted on a different domain without running into an UnauthorizedAccessException.
This is a slightly tricky one, so bear with me...I have a simple little method:

the service is for now working correctly. Anyone have any ideas what would cause such an intermittent failing? I'm assured by co-workers that nothing was changed over the weekend (not manually at least). Baffled...
Ok so I have a small problem with an error I am catching. It only produces the file name and not the actual path of the file.I want to delete a folder and all the files and folders inside of it. However an error is thrown when a file is "read-only". A quick fix would be to set the attributes of that file to normal and then try again, the only problem is the error doesn't give you the location of the file.

I recently reformatted my computer and now that I try running a program I made beforehand, I always get an UnauthorizedAccessException when the program tries to access the D drive. How do I make it authorized? I tried changing the security settings for the D drive but that wasn't really much help.
View 1 RepliesI'm debugging a VB app where I'm using a comm port attached to a bluetooth radio paired to another bluetooth radio in order to communicate with a remote barcode scanner. The pair of bluetoooth devices basically work as a serial cable replacement. Sometimes it works fine, but after a while I get an UnauthorizedAccessException message which breaks the program (see attached jpeg).
I only get this when I use the radios and not when I use a direct cable. I wonder if it has something to do with other bluetooth devices nearby trying to communicate with mine. I've used the .NET Framework 2.0 Confuration tool to adjust the zone security to give full trust to MyComputer, so I don't think it has to do with security, but I'm really going beyond my area of expertise here. I don't know what's going on.

I have a very simple StopWatch application in Silverlight. I have the following private properties in my MainPage class: _StopPressed (bool), _TimeStart, _Elapsed (string). I also have a "Start" and "Stop" button. The "Start" button calls a method called UpdateTime that constantly updates _ElapsedTime until _StopPressed is true. When I originally wrote it, UpdateTime would block the UI so I couldn't press the Stop button, so I updated my code to use System.Threading.ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem with my UpdateTime method so that it updates _Elapsed on a background thread. That works great at updating the value.However, if I try to set the .Text value of my TextBlock from within UpdateTime(), I get an UnauthorizedAccessException that has to do with one thread accessing the data in another thread.What do I need to do to avoid getting this exception and appropriately update the UI without blocking it?

I'm running windows 7 64 bit and using VS 2010. I'm trying to use the filesystem.getfiles to find a file on the computer and return the path for it. However, when I search C:/ and its subdirectories, it always throws an error: "A first chance exception of type 'System.UnauthorizedAccessException' occurred in mscorlib.dll"
I've looked everyone online and can't find a solution. I have administrator privileges and really I dont want people who use my app to have to adjust security settings for this to work. Is there not a way to search the C drive for a specific file and return its path? [Code]

I am using Visual Basic 2010 ultimate in Visual Studio 2010.
I have a function that returns a value of the numbers of files, folders and subfolders in a directory. But i can't seem to handle the "UnauthorizedAccessException" which i get from certain read only files or folders. I tried to use both the DirectoryInfo.GetDirectories() and DirectoryInfo.GetFiles() methods. as you can see from the code below. This exception is thrown in start of the for each loop, so i'm not able to handel it with a try, Catch Ex As UnauthorizedAccessException to cintinue the loop.
