Hi, when I close music bee, it gives the message " unable to save changes made to the current library: access is denied " then gives path to library.
I tried creating a new library, but get the same msg., with the path to the original library.

This is a new problem.

Running very 3.2.6902 on windows 10.

Many thanks for help.

Hé Catstuff,

These are the things I can think of:
- Check Properties/Security of your MB folders (I assume your login should have 'full control' (apart from 'special permissions'))
- 'White List' all your MB folders in case you use an Anti-Virus program (in Defender:  'exclude' the MB folders)
(Mb folders include:  Program Files, Library folder, music folders, App Data (= hidden folder in Users/*Username*/App Data/Roaming)
(if you use the portable version, App Data is included in the Library folder)

As your library database (*.mbl) is saved in your Library folder, maybe best to start there.

Others will correct me if their are better ways.
Good luck!
