compile error

Why do I get the following error

Building untitled1
Linking:untitled1.debug.exe
C:/BlitzMax/BlitzMaxBeta105/bin/ld.exe: cannot open output file C: Permission denied
:/BlitzMax/BlitzMaxBeta105/tmp/untitled1.debug.exe
Process complete

And why can I not delete the file
C:/BlitzMax/BlitzMaxBeta105/tmp/untitled1.debug.exe

sounds to me like you have set some file-permissions to read-only.. Maybe the blitzmax directory and recursively?!?

The file is still running ( did you have something with print and waitkey ). You will have to stop it manually using ctrl-alt-del.

The stop button was broken in 1.05 IDE, you need 1.05b IDE!

duh... you were right not sure why it sets it to read only as default when you extract the update.

Thanks

thanks for the info to Dreamora
