Question

I got Access is denied when trying to CreateFileAsync in InstalledLocation StorageFolder

StorageFolder storageFolder = Windows.ApplicationModel.Package.Curre         


        

Answer 1

The app's install directory is a read-only location. In addition, it would not be recommended that you write data files to the installed location. If you need to store data this is for the application's use only, you should use

StorageFolder localFolder = ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder;

or

Windows.Storage.StorageFolder temporaryFolder = ApplicationData.Current.TemporaryFolder;

depending on the lifetime of the data.
