Title: QtWorkbench installation Error
Post by: StrikeChaos1 on May 16, 2012, 06:18:01 am

I downloaded the QtWorkbench-0.60_alpha plugin from http://code.google.com/p/qtworkbench/, then I go to Plugins->Manage Plugins, click Install new and open QtWorkbench-0.60_alpha.cbplugin, but I always get the error message "Can't open destination file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks/share/CodeBlocks/plugins/QtWorkbench.dll' for writing...". Note that the slashes start out as \ but after the first CodeBlocks they become /, like I'm using a unix like computer, but I'm on Windows 7.

Can anyone help me?

As a normal on Windows (7) user you don't have write access to that folder. The error message is true and telling you exactly that.

Run the installer either as admin or move Code::Blocks to another folder where you have write access.

Thanks, ran it as a administrator as it loaded without a hitch.
