Why am i getting WindowsError: [Error 5] Access is denied?

问题

Trying to create program that adds folders into program files-recieving this error:

WindowsError: [Error 5] Access is denied 'C:\\Program Files\\IMP'

Here is my code

import os, sys, random
numb= 1
x=True
while x==True:
    newpath = ((r'C:\Program Files\IMP\folder_%s') % (numb))
    if not os.path.exists(newpath):
        os.makedirs(newpath)
    numb=numb+1
    if numb==11:
        x=False

回答1:

Because you have to have the "system administrator privileges" to create dirs under C:\Program Files.

So try run the script with system administrators privilege.

---

To start a command prompt as an administrator

1. Click Start.
2. In the Start Search box, type cmd, and then press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER.
3. Run the python script.

回答2:

Right click on file (which file/folder's permissions needed to execute the script) go properties, security and enable all permissions, little checkboxes -> ALLOW: "every application package & limited application package & trusted installer"

this is it :)
