Title: plugin folder is write protected
Post by: stax76 on February 27, 2017, 03:39:25 PM

The default location of the MusicBee plugin folder is write protected (C:\Program Files (x86)\MusicBee\Plugins), Visual Studio cannot write to it, what I did is install MusicBee to C:\Users\Frank\AppData\Roaming\MusicBee, are there other possible approaches like changing privileges for the plugin folder, maybe it can be done but it's probably difficult so I didn't try it. It doesn't really matter to me but \AppData\Roaming could be used for plugins or the installer could change privileges for the plugin folder, I think the MediaMonkey installer does this.
