Hi Stuart,

The reason for this is connected to where FPW stores its temporary files (TMPFILES and/or PROGWORK settings in the configuration file). It is not necessary to compile on the C:, and in fact this error can occur even under that situation.

See my FAQ on how to fix this. Click the Knowledge Base icon (purple book), then Frequently Asked Questions, then Project Manager. There are only three entries. You'll be able to see this topic easily.
