I created a program which was deleting a particular directory for me. The program was compiled and working. Today I run the same program...did not do any system updates and now it won't delete my specified directory. I ran tests to make sure the directory is there when testing...I keep getting access/permission errors.
I rebooted system, ran my application...still gave me error. I turned off Windows Defender...still got error. If I manually delete the directory...no problem.
Is there a way to get system permission to delete the directory? I am being given an 'access denied' error...I do not have permission. I tried running my application as administrator...no good. - VB 2008 Express - VISTA OS
Is there a way to set admin permission on them user/AppData/Local/Temp folder?I need to set it so folders and subfolder cant be deleted, then turn it back on. Not doing anything shady... this is for personal use I make themes for BB phones, and there is a trick where you can set this permission, then export the theme, and it allows you to look at the code of the theme so you can make adjustments in how things work

So I wrote a VB.net project in Visual studio.I have a scheduled task that is set to run the program every morning at 10AM. If I use windows explorer and double click the application, it runs fine.If I open task scheduler, open the task properties, and browse to the application, then choose run, the program fails, due to Runtime exceptions.I know I have the path entered correctly, since I can debug the instance when it crashes from the task scheduler. VS2010 pulls up my source code.The exception is System.IO.FileNotFoundException, remember, it works fine when I double click the app. If attach a debugger to the process after it is executed from the task scheduler, I can then restart the debugger, and Voila!, The application runs fine.

In my web application we have many users. I want to set permission for each user. In our windows application we used Database to store the Permission(Insert,Modify,delete and View). In web application can anybody tell me about where to store the permission. Somebody told that if we use database it will take so much time? In the case of XML it is easy and not taking much time. But if the client set permission for number of users,then it will create problem?.
(Permission means in case of "Category" page which user can view the Category page,which user can edit information about category,which user can delete information of category,which user can add new category)
Modifying a registry key we could 'write-protect' our USBs, and I wanted to make a program that would do such but I am getting a permission problem in adding a registry key to the local machine. My development machine is Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit but I would want it that it will be able to run on other OS like XP and 32 bits. My thought is that I will use autorun and run my program so that upon insertion it will become 'write-protected' and be able to re-enable it also using the program.

View 2 RepliesI am using Caspol.exe to install a custom Permission set and add Code Groups for my .Net 2.0 Windows Application.
I have created a Console Application that uses caspol.exe to add Permission Set and Code Groups. I first install the Permission Set and if I do not get an error, I continue to install the Code Groups
Now sometimes I need to add a new Code Group to the client machine, so I make the changes to the console app and it is executed on the client machine. If the client machine already has the Permission Set installed, it returns an error and stops the further processing.
So, I want to know if I can check whether a custom Permission Set is already added or not?
VB.NET application which allows user to split a file in smaller files. However the stand alone executable of the application,had a permission problem using filestream to read a file without an OutOfMemory exception, while selecting to split locatein certain directories like "C:".To solve the problem i checked My Project window and the "Security" tab, and i tried checking the checkbox: "Enable ClickOnce Security Setting" and selecting "fulltrust application". This added to my app.manifest these lines of code:
<applicationRequestMinimum>
<defaultAssemblyRequest permissionSetReference="Custom" />
<PermissionSet class="System.Security.PermissionSet" version="1" Unrestricted="true"

I'm writing an application in which a user can add, change and delete members from a list of members, and the adding and changing is done in a dialog box with some input fields.The problem is that when the user presses the OK button it should test whether some combobox is still empty, since this will otherwise return nothing and that will create an error somewhere else in the program. I do this within the OK_Button_Click event of the dialog box by testing whether the selectedItem is equal to nothing, if not it calls me.close, but if it is equal to nothing it displays a messagebox indicating that the user should still pick something from that combobox.Now the problem: when the OK button is clicked in the messagebox the dialog box also closes, even though the me.close isn't executed.
