Windows 7 - annoying can't create temporary file popup

[DocRabbit]

Hallo,

sorry for my weird question - but after upgrading to Windows 7 (new computer) I'm still bothered by this error message (see picture) - even though I have (checked several times) the rights on the folder set correctly (ownership by my account, full access). Have anyone some hints? This popup is very annoying. Thank you,

George

Hi George,

Can you explain how to you encounter this problem? Is it happening just when you open CVI?

Best regards,

Hallo, Ion,

This popup comes up (seems to me) unpredictably (but relatively often : 2 - 5 times per minute) after I open the workspace and also during my work on development the software, including when the application is debugged.

I make some investigation - the problem probably lays on the UAC basis; using samples form NI (on path User\Public\Documents\National ....) is without this annyance.

I try to clean-up whole project sandbox and update source codes from svn server again - and the problem is gone!

I consider it as resolved....

Thanks for your concern.

Hi, all,

the problem is back again ...

Another details: CVI displays the weird popup - and save in the pointed (!) directory it's temporary file ini$$...CVI (two samples see in attachement).

The question is - which internal process of CVI environment need to save this file? And is there possibility to change this behaviour?

Thanks,

George

Are you sure you are running under a user that has admin rights?

Hi,

I'm member of administrators group (checked), LW CVI is running under the administrator rights (checked) - thus I suppose I have administrator rights.

The ownership of sandbox directory tree is same, as in case of running the NI sample workspace.

Really I have no idea what to check and/or correct.

Cheers,

George

Hi, I'm not sure but I believe this is caused by the group policy not allowing CVI to write the file, you need to open the gpedit.msc and edit I think the "user rights assignment" Sorry I can't do better but it is a windows 7 issue not a CVI issue. Admin doesn't mean what it used to under previous editions of windows. so far if you want to do anything out of the ordinary W7 is being a bit of a headache. If you dig around on the net I've found a good bit of stuff but you know.....cheers, hope this helps a little.

Hi,

Unfortunately I have no success with beating this - even when building an application from scratch (also in different location). To be honest, I'm not expert on W7, english is not my mother tongue and the documentation is due the translation of terminology hard to understand. The hint to edit "user rights assignment" does not give me any guidance how to check/edit, because the I don't know what is the root process, which need to write the temporary file (any other files are successfully written).

But I can't agree that this is not a problem CVI, because popup window (having the meaning to inform user of some internal IDE problem) blocks the run of developed application.

Cheers,

George

I forgot to add this: in the referenced directory (see attachement above - "...\cvibuild.Terno") CVI IDE stores other files - like build.ini, dependencies.bri - and also creates additional subdirectories debug, release. I think that the error message displays invalid information ... and I'm digging in the wrong grave ...

Hello,

I've got the same problem.

I've found a solution : in "options/environment" dialog box, uncheck "enable auto backup".
