Error in PLCnext Engineer: "Access to the path is denied"

Hi everyone,
I’m encountering an issue with PLCnext Engineer while working on my project. The error message I’m getting is:
Internal Error: Access to the path '\?\C:\Users\MYUSERNAME\OneDrive - MYSOCIETY

\Documenti\PLCnext Engineer\Binaries\PROJECT1~2@binary\RES_A5E06123EAB54BBA9CF2E24BA6E3CB16\Arp.Io.AxlC' is denied.

It seems the software is unable to access a specific path. The file is located in a folder synced with OneDrive, so I suspect it might be related to permissions or the cloud synchronization. Has anyone experienced a similar issue? Any suggestions on how to resolve this? Thanks in advance!

Hello,
it might be that the files you are searching are not indicated as always save on this device.

If the files are in the cloud and not physically on the PC third part applications cannot access them.
Otherwise it could be that you need to run PLCNext Engineer with administration privileges.

I have just deleted the binaries folders when this occurs, then it works fine

Or you could relocate your binaries folder to a path that is not sync’ed with OneDrive.
