I keep geting this message when i am trying to use Pulse.

[megahertz]

This problem should disappear after restarting Pulse

Unfortunately it doesn't. It happens everytime i open Pulse. I can install stuff, but i have to click to ignore this message hundreds of times.

Most probably, you have run Pulse as administrator, so now it can't write Pulse data files. There are two workarounds:

• Make sure your user account has full access to C:\Users\User1\AppData\Roaming\Pulse\data\pZF9szYsFJQpYXnavNN6153MOg63 folder and to all files inside. This instruction could be helpful.
• Close Pulse and remove C:\Users\User1\AppData\Roaming\Pulse. When Pulse is restarted it recreates this directory. But login and product data will be lost, so you'll need to sign in and add installed products manually (Re-locate button on a product page).

Ok brilliant! I'll give this a try and let you know how i get on. Thanks and best wishes.

Hi there. Sorry for taking so long to get back to you. So i can't find the path from AppData, see attached screen shot

[megahertz]

That folder is hidden. You can paste this path to the address bar and press Enter.
