Cause

This error is due to your permissions set on the PC the Sync App is installed on. The highlighted line below shows the path that you cannot access. This folder is protected by administrator rights.

Resolution

To resolve this, you must be given read/write access to the PC. You will need to contact your IT helpdesk to grant you access. If that cannot be done, they will need to setup a domain user by following this guide.
