Odd that it is a permissions error. Is the NVEncC folder on another drive or shared drive?

I've tried other drive (not shared), same folder and nothing worked.

Maybe I was just dumb, sorry to bother but I didn't know that I needed path to exe file exactly not just folder location so I've manually pasted path to NVEncC but I needed to press yellow button instead where it asked me for NVEncC64.exe location.
