windows 7 permission denied

(1/2) > >>

narendrav:
I use codeblocks on windows 7.The first 2 or 3 programmes were compiled well.
they were just simple "hello world" programmes.But from then on it started showing
an error that "PERMISSION IS DENIED".It was the only error that it showed.
I dont know what to do.I am new to  C programming and I liked Code blocks because it has a white background.
Please help me

Save/Start the project in a folder you have rights to save/update it in.
NOTE: You should NOT save the project under Program Files folder.
Or directly under the C:\ drive.

NO, I DID NOT SAY THAT!

Edit: Someone who knows how to explain Windows Folders Permissions to an Windows 7 Newbie, please answer, I give up.

Edit2: Another Thread that says Anti-Virus can cause related problem; not the same as what I was thinking "Windows Folders Permissions".

It sounds like you are new to many things besides C programming.
Create a folder for your programs under ""Documents", because there you will have permission to write at will.
From then on, select that folder as the location for your projects in Code::Blocks.
