Cannot write the GeneralEngine.cfg file

[Tdot]

I am seeing this dialog box a couple times per day, but certainly not for every UUT that is run through:

This is with TestStand 2016 64bit. 

I had made a change where I granted all users full permissions to the Cfg folder, and I thought that had solved the problem but it recently happened again even with these settings.

Does anyone know why this error happens?  It seems to be recoverable in the sequence editor, if "OK" is clicked soon enough, but the operator interface just freezes and crashes.

The only time I've seen that is when IT changed our user permissions.  Are you using a shared drive with other users?  Do you have more than one instance of TestStand using the same environment?

Thanks for the reply.

No, the folder is on the local C: drive.

No, just one instance of TestStand is running per PC.

Although, this directory is an SVN "sandbox" that can be re-synchronized with the SVN server, but we have this same setup on other test stations without issues with older versions of TestStand or 32bit Windows.
