Core: access permission error

upon trying to start SC2, it gives this error ‘Core: access permission error’ and this report ID ‘50480E16-2BC7-4886-BDAA-03CEB833ED0B’.

Hey there,

I’m seeing the following in the error report:
Process doesn’t have write access. "C:\Program Files (x86)\StarCraft II"

Might be worth disabling any back-up services or antivirus software. Reinstalling the game to a different folder may also help in some cases. Testing a new windows admin account may also be worth trying if the other instructions don’t help.

Let us know how things go. Cheers!

+1 - also getting this
