Topic: TeeWorlds : Access denied

Aloha there!
There's a strange problem with game folder on my comp...
I've unpacked the archive and tried to run the game, but instead a message 'ACCESS DENIED' popped out. It actually does, whenever I try to run on delete any file within 'TeeWorlds' folder, or delete the folder itself. WTF?
Cheers

Re: TeeWorlds : Access denied

You probably messed something up with multiple users on the computer. If you run windows, try to do it from an administrator. If you run Linux, use either root or reset the ownership and rights of the folder.

Re: TeeWorlds : Access denied

There's only one account, it's mine and I'm the admin. That's why I'm worried.
I'm using windows XP with SP3.

SP3 is a fail itself, and I suspect this is the root of your problem.

Re: TeeWorlds : Access denied

windows xp pro or home? .. if you use pro.. have a look @the acces rights . because its possible to denied acces to folders for admins too
(useless because you can give you the rights to do that)

Remember me? Questions? Just leave a message, I will respond within 72 hrs!

Re: TeeWorlds : Access denied

I suposse you have tried to restart the system. Try to delete the files in Comand Prompt (I think it is its name):

Start menu>Run...
Type CMD
go to where the Teeworlds folder is and then type:
del teeworlds-0.4.3-win32 (or the name of the folder)

There is a software called "Unlocker" that may help you.
