  1. Authorizing Apps to Create Files & Directories Windows 10 (home)


    Whenever I (via the terminal with node/npm) or an app (VScode, Github, etc.) issue commands to create new files or directories they're always met with a "permission denied" error response. Why is this?

    I've tried to suss out the issue but between security nuances and restricted/cumbersome user permissions of the "home" version of windows 10 and my admitted ignorance of PC security beyond basic antiviral defenses and firewalls, I'm at a loss.

    I've tried elevating app permissions, running apps as admin, disabling malware features and other since forgotten measures and nothing ever works.

    What's the secret to actually having full control over my own PC? Thanks for any guidance you might provide!

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
