Hello,

I'm currently testing SkyDemon and I wanted to install it on my PC under windows 11.
The installation process seems to run normally but the first time I launch the app, it says that it cannot find the folder under c;\users\xxx\Documents\SkyDemon.
I've tried to create the folder and all necessary folders by hand (no rights issues) and when I try to download a chart, it says that it does not have the rights to save it.
I have full admin rights on my system.

Thanks for your help

It appears that you do not, in fact, have those rights on your system, or at least apps you're running don't. I can't really help with this. Chances are you're running some sort of "protection" software that stops apps from actually accessing your Documents folder. If we can't access that folder, we can't save data needed to run.

I have admin rights on my computer and it's a personnal one. I can create manually the folders. I don't know how the installer tries to create them. But from what I see, it's using .net fwk 4.72 which is not officially compatible with windows 11. So I assume that SkyDemon is not comptaible windows 11...
