need administration permission to open image

[cjacobson]

I am using Backyard Eos version 3.1.18 with a cannon 3ti camera.  I have a bunch of imaging runs from this summer that I decided to work on today.  I received this annoying message on everything since May 21. I have been using this nice software for several years with out this issue arising.  What did I do to  engender this wonderful windows 10  issue and what can I do about it.?   thanks cjacobson  I tried to add a comet single shot , it was too large

Your issue is that the folder where the images are stored is not accessible to your Windows account without additional privileges. You may need to either change the permissions on that folder or move the images to a different folder that you have full permissions for.

thanks for the answer but that did not even work.  I can't copy them to  a new folder.  Interestingly the total lunar eclipse folder and files is accessible.  Any other ideas?  I can not find any EOS settings that would do this.  this is W10  garbage I think but why.  and how to fix are unknown to me.  cjacobson

Bottom line. this came out of nowhere and affected some of last summer's images but not all.

You won't find a setting for this in BackyardEOS because it is a Windows permission issue.

If it used to work, and now it does not, something has changed on your computer/environment.
