ToPath = tempPath & "Documents and Settings" & "\" & tempUser & "\" & "Desktop" & "\" & FolderName Formatting tags added by mark007 Everything goes fine up until the copy command where I have a runtime error 70, permission denied. Set FSO = CreateObject("scripting.filesystemobject") FSO.CopyFile Source:=FromPath & FileName, Destination:=ToPath Formatting tags added by mark007 I did some troubleshooting, and noticed that if I manually create the "ToPath" folder, the file gets copied without any error. Am I forgetting something to declare? Have anyone faced such error?

As shown, if FolderName ends in a path seperator, Foldername must already exist. If no trailing path seperator is in FolderName, Foldername becomes the name of the copied file (which would be created on the desktop).

There are other parts of the script (not shown) that create and copy folder contents using the same source and destination directories, and they work perfectly. It's only when I use CopyFile that it fails. dim fso set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") if not fso.FileExists("H:\Minecraft\.minecraft\options.txt") then fso.CopyFile "C:\Minecraft\options.txt", "H:\Minecraft\.minecraft\" end if http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16071679/permission-denied-on-copyfile-in-vbs set fso = nothing H: is a network home directory, to which the current user has full read/write privs. I've tried adding/removing trailing slashes from the paths, adding "options.txt" to the destination path, removing the false argument... Not sure what else to try. Any thoughts? Thanks! FYI, this chunk of code, which comes immediately before the error-prone bit above, executes perfectly every time: if not fso.FolderExists("H:\Minecraft\.minecraft\bin\") then if not fso.FolderExists("H:\Minecraft\.minecraft\") then fso.CreateFolder("H:\Minecraft\.minecraft\") end if fso.GetFolder("C:\Minecraft\bin\").Copy "H:\Minecraft\.minecraft\" end if vbscript permission-denied copyfile share|improve this question edited Apr 18 '13 at 16:36 asked Apr 17 '13 at 22:56 Triz 3022619 add a comment| 5 Answers 5 active oldest votes up vote 40 down vote accepted I've only seen CopyFile fail with a permission denied error in one of these 3 scenarios: An actual permission problem with either source or destination. Destination path is a folder, but does not have a trailing backslash. Source file is locked by an application. share|improve this answer answered Apr 18 '13 at 16:48 Ansgar Wiechers 86.9k1165104 So it's definitely not #2, it's probably not #3... Permissions on destination are fine, since I can copy other things there. How would I check/fix permissions on the source? (That is, what do they need to be in order to allow a file copy? Just
