Can have permission denied when creating config file in Windows

[SulisEm]

Hi, several passages was not very clear to me, anyway I quite solved the issues.

Last error appears while typing the following command:

py:setup py:python

I solved opening NetLogo as administrator, but is not very comfortable... other solutions?

Thanks for reporting! It looks like this actually happened when using the configuration menu; is that right? The error is saying it couldn't create the configuration file in your extension directory. Can you try running NetLogo as an administrator and then configuring the python extension? Once configured, it should be good to go.

thanks, it works :-)

Glad to hear it! I'm going to reopen this, however, as the extension should really handle this better.
