Unable to access files for todotxt.net #442

Closed R0xiedog closed 2 months ago

R0xiedog commented 1 year ago

I recently changed my computer and have upgraded to Windows 11. When installing todotxt.net, I now get the following error:

"An unexpected error occurred System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\Users\xxxxx\OneDrive\Desktop\todo.txt' is denied."

Note that xxxxx is a substitute for the actual folder name, which I am not sharing here.

Any ideas on how to fix this error?

I know this has been awhile. Hopefully, you've fixed this by now. This is a Windows security feature. When it happens, you should be able to click on the alert and taken to a settings window to allow you to give the app approval to modify the todo.txt files.
