Title: POLINK: Fatal error
Post by: PHANTOMIAS on March 31, 2009, 12:31:23 PM
Hello!

I have PellesC installed on Windows Vista.
I use the simple "hello world" program and I get the following error trying to run (I have the german version, I try to translate :-)):
Creating of programname.exe
POLINK: fatal error
Access denied
*** Error code: 1 ***
Finish

What's the problem here? Does anyone know?

Thanks & Regards.

Where is your project located ???
If it is located under C:\Program Files, you are not allowed to save there.

That's true if the user account is not a member of the Administrators group.

Thanks you very much.
The problem is solved, it shouldn't be saved there.

... or if UAC is enabled, which it is by default.
