Im trying to make file named hello.txt and code show error that I dont have access to the path.

So how can I make file?

Code:

        static void create_file(string path)
        {
            FileStream fs = File.Create(path);
        }
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            create_file("hello.txt");
            
        }

Error:

  • They way I am reading this is you tried A and got a descriptive error message about why A failed. I am not reading a question, just a statement of events. What is your question. – Igor Aug 06 '21 at 14:40

    Well... do you have write access to the folder? Can you create a file there using (for example) the File Explorer? – Boise Aug 06 '21 at 14:42

    `So how can I make file?` ← Based on the Exception and message you received you need to grant access rights to the location where you are creating it. – Igor Aug 06 '21 at 14:44

  • @user16580310 you've tried all solutions (5) in that duplicate and nothing works? `I already tried that`, we need more details in order to help you. – Trevor Aug 06 '21 at 15:06
  • Do directory path and final folder exist? Does the file already exist? Do you have rights and permission to create and write to the folder? What does https://lockhunter.com tell you about the folder and the file? –  Aug 06 '21 at 15:13
  • @OlivierRogier Folder exists and file not cuz Im trying to create it – user16580310 Aug 06 '21 at 15:15

If you are using Visual Studio try launching Visual Studio Application as Administrator.
