When i try to update OW it cant acces the file

3 days ago overwatch has been unable to update since it cant accsess the file. I have deleted the game after which i had to reinstall it with another windows account (both are admin). Now even that account cant accsess the folder. I have tried different drives i have tried clearing any trace of battle net and reinstalling. I have made secondary logon aoutomatic. The internet has been no help since it looks like im the only one with the issue. Every other battlenet game downloads and updates normally. Any help would be apreciated.

I have the same problem aswell. Couldn’t find a solution so far

This problem has been spotted on other blizz game forums so thought i might spread a potential fix:
Rename the “Overwatch” folder in your Documents folder, then restart battle.net!!
Fixed the same issue for me on heroes of the storm and others for sc2.
