"Can't create file" error with mdk3.04 update

Hello,

I just updated my Keil UV3 with mdk3.04 (UV3 V3.50).

Now whenever I close Keil Uv3 I get the following error:
"Can't create file:'C:\Keil_Arm\ARM\Examples\DHRY\DHRY_Opt.Bak'!"

It doesn't matter what project I open or close they all have the error.
The first time you close a new project, there is no error because it creates a Project.Opt file.
The second time you close a project (after making a change to the project like opening a file) it tries to create a Project_Opt.Bak file but can't and generates the error??

This never happened with UV3 V 3.34 and is very annoying. I even tried turning off the option to create .bak files but it doesn't work.

Thanks,
Brian

  • I still have this very annoying problem.
    I have full access to my computer and no files or folders are write protected.
    This was not an issue with my previous install of UV3.

    I have discovered that the error doesn't happen on my laptop which has Windows Vista. But it does happen on my Win98 PC.

  • I have no idea if that is the problem you have and thus just address a "fact of life"

    More and more software will not, in the latest version, run under win98.

    My solution:
    I have, sitting under my desk, an old PC (aka a boatanchor) running win98 to run the one app I still have to run under that version. It is netwroked to my XP pro unit on top of my desk. I have a linksys switch that switches keyboard, mouse and monitor between the two. For the years I have had this setup, every time a new version came out of whatever software, it was loaded on the XP machine, so, hopefully, some day I can switch off the '98 unit.

    my laptop which has Windows Vista.
    my condolences.
