Access to the path '*\AppData\Roaming\PlexampRPC\auth' is denied.

*When running the .exe it doesn't create the \AppData\Roaming\PlexampRPC\auth directory, so I manually created the directory and received this error:**

Access to the path '*\AppData\Roaming\PlexampRPC\auth' is denied.

Can you try with this PlexampRPC.zip

[billwhy]

This fixed it! Thanks for resolving this so promptly!

Same issue, I tried the new .exe you linked above and got this error:

Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Users\zkais\AppData\Roaming\PlexampRPC\auth.token'.

I think I might've made a silly mistake, try this to see if its fixed PlexampRPC.zip

[STRHercules]

That fixed it for me!

EDIT: I spoke too soon, after switching to another Plex Server I got this:

I omitted the actual IP Address in the error, it had my external IP in there.

Does this work (I don't have multiple servers myself so I'm not able to test directly myself) PlexampRPC.zip

[STRHercules]

Negative, but it seems I was wrong in why it crashed earlier. Seems like its time based? I was able to select my server but it crashed shortly after. Same result no matter how many times I switch servers

[Dyvinia]

it seems it just can't connect to any servers, is the server accessable outside the network? (or maybe a firewall or something)

[STRHercules]

Yeah I have numerous users who live all over the country who have no issues

[Dyvinia]

Try the latest version, It doesn't solve issues with connecting but it should resolve crashes if it fails. Also closing this issue as the main/original issue is resolved, the connection issue has a new issue at #2
