I actually did try a week ago but don’t recall the results other than it didn’t succeed.

The only account I use is configured as administrator, but I tried it again just now.

The resulting error:

ERRORS OCCURRED

See the logfile ‘C:\Program Files(x86))\Chirp\chirpw.exe.log’ For Details

However, it DID create the missing log file. Contents are:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "chirpw", line 20, in <module>

  File "chirp\logger.pyo", line 151, in <module>

  File "chirp\logger.pyo", line 93, in __init__

IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'C:\\Users\\Mike Earls\\AppData\\Roaming\\CHIRP\\debug.log'

Hope this helps.

Try running as administrator?

It’s been over a year since I used Chirp on my Windows 10 laptop, at which time it worked fine.

I installed new daily builds about a week ago and today.

Chirp fails to load presenting the following error:

The logfile’C:\Program Files(x86)\Chirp\chirpw.exe.log’ could not be opened:

[Errno 13]Permission denied:’C:\\ Program Files(x86)\\Chirp\\chirpw.exe.log’

After the attempt a week ago, I uninstalled Chirp and reinstalled from the Daily Build.

There is no chirpw.exe.log on the computer.

Today’s Daily Build did not improve the situation.

I installed the Daily Build on my Windows 7 laptop and Chirp functions fine.

That computer does not have the chirpw.exe.log anywhere on it.

I’ve got some radios I’d like to update.

Thanks,
