Visual Studio unable to copy the file ‘Application.Designer.vb’ from the project template to the project. Access is denied.
Hi
I have installed visual studio community onWin 7 PCs on our network. When users log into the visual studio application,
by default the application has taken path of the students home directory to save projects , that is located on the windows 2003 file server
\\File server-a\students\16\11jsm ith\visual studio 2015\Projects.
Now when students open the Visual studio –Click New project
Select Visual Basic under templates, and Windows Forms Application and click ok
They get an error which says, unable to copy the file ‘Application.Designer.vb’ from the project template to the project. Access is denied.
Please see the attached snapshot of the process of opening the application and the error message.
Please help, what needs to be done to allow access and this application to work
Any help much appreciated
Thanks in advance.
