Random number appended to import #145

I'm attempting to import a driver module directly in order to see why "list_instruments()" isn't listing my connected spectrometer, as recommended here. However, when I try to import using "import instrumental.drivers.spectrometers.thorlabs_ccs", I get the following error:

[Errno 13] Permission denied: 'C:\Program Files\Python37\lib\site-packages\instrumental_lib-0.6-py3.7-win-amd64.egg\instrumental\drivers\spectrometers\_tlccslib.py.~19824'

Except the number at the end after the tilde "19824" is random every time I try to import. I'm not entirely sure how to track down this error, but I thought it might be worth reporting.

I installed both Instrumental and NiceLib using Git

Hi, thanks for the bug report. This one is interesting, I'm not sure I've ever seen something like this before. Is there more to the traceback that you can post?

Ideally I'd like to see the full input and output, i.e. your import statement and anything that gets printed on the terminal.
