Live 8: For an unknown reason, Live could not delete the tem

Post by arachnaut » Thu Apr 09, 2009 2:14 am

Ever since I started using Live 8 I've been getting intermittent messages that say:

For an unknown reason, Live could not delete the temporary files from G:\Temp\Temp-nn Project\

The Temp folder fills up with stuff and I go in and manually delete them.

The reason appears to be that in these folders the Ableton Project Info folder is write-protected.

G:\Temp is what I set in preferences.

Yep, I'm getting this too. Even just when closing an empty set.

I have the same problem. Any tips on deleting the folders? I could not delete Temp Project and its new siblings Temp-1 ... Temp-4 Project folders. I am running XP SP3.

Well last night I had to rollup my sleeves and whip out a DOS box. After handjobbing the temp folders with attrib -R commands so I could delete them, I am now back to the original Temp Project folder. :mrgreen:
