That's a significant error, where the program is just trying to write a file in an area of windows that is public and acceptable to write to, but is denied access by Windows. That message isn't related to BB activation it's just a plain refusal of windows to allow a file to be written to that location. Every copy of BB writes to that folder every time the program is run.

BB doesn't need admin privileges to do this, and I haven't seen anyone else with that problem. I'd suspect it's some extra type of security that's been installed to your PC, like an over-vigilant virus checker or something.

to a different drive. " That c:bb wasn't obvious to me
at the time." Yep it went.

In general you can just drag the **whole** BB folder to somewhere else on the same or a different drive and it works fine. But it sounds like you dragged part of it, that you refer to as "extra files and folders". You can separately drag the Realtracks folder or the Drums folder to a separate folder, and then tell BB where you dragged them to in the preferences Realtracks and preferences Real drums option in the program. But if you dragged other folders out of there it would be like removing various parts of a car.

It may help to look at the log file. You see that from help- show log file. Then look for error related messages and post them here. The newest messages are at the top of that file.


Hi,

I will try to check that file. Is it available from the
menu?

I thought I just moved the entire 86 gigs to another drive, without thinking. But it may
have only transfered it in parts.

Then I copied it back to C root.

HOWEVER - THE C: users..... files seem to be where the problems
are occurring, yes? That one, I'm not sure if it was copied
in whole. Can that be recreated?

I just checked - the program IS again AUTHORIZED now.

I will monitor what errors I get now> The latest is
it created a FAULTY mp4 export file.


thanks
