I have read the various post here regarding this issue, and none fit my issue, so (reluctantly) created another thread.
As noted in the title, I just installed IOBIT Malware Fighter (normally I don't use AV's, but getting crazy out there) - And sure enough, I get this error when compiling. It comes because the IMF detects files being used and exe's working on them. In this case runing qb64.exe fails since it has to be OK'd. So I whitelisted the qb64 folder, yet it still comes up - the log
cc1plus.exe: fatal error: qbx.cpp: Permission denied
compilation terminated.
this should NOT fail since the folder is under the whitelisted QB64 folder. any suggestions for circumventing this?
