I have the following folder - default setup from FG.  I did not specify this folder anywhere:

C:\Users\Ron\Documents\FlightGear\Aircraft\org.flightgear.fgaddon

usual permissions:

administrator group - full control,  read,write, modify, etc.
Ron - my id full same as admin
System group - full

AND .... one I don't know about.

Unknown Account - read, execute only.

Can you confirm that creating a folder / file manually inside

C:\Users\Ron\Documents\FlightGear\Aircraft\org.flightgear.fgaddon

Works from Windows explorer as your normal user? I expect it must but just making sure.

Googling this - seems to point to an nvidia issue -

I would be extremely surprised if that were the case, can you point me the article / pages suggesting that? I say this because a graphics driver shouldn’t be touching the filesystem code at all.

What is more likely is that some internal error is occurring in FG, but being reported as a permissions issue by the update code. if you could email me the fgfs.log file for a run where the update fails, it would help.

Kind regards,
James
