Cannot Install Upgrade

General questions about using Fund Manager that do not fit into any other forum.

Installation Aborted

Extract: error writing to the file dis.dat


File is NOT read only. Now cannot open old version of FM.

Fixed it.

It was to do with Windows Security preventing "Controlled Folder" access. Had to allow the downloaded FM upgrade .exe file permission to access controlled folders. (The old FM.exe file had already been given permission when I encountered a similar problem as reported some time ago.)

I came across this fix by right-clicking the dis.dat folder > scanning with Windows Security.
