Hello,

When I try to open workbench project files I get an error "Access to path session files is denied".  

I am unable to open projects I've worked on and have to start a new project each time.  

 

System error details" 

System.IO.IOException: Access to the path 'session_files' is denied.

Hey

Can you check out this post once, Unable to save Workbench projects

Session files error occurs sometimes when you are synching the project folders to the cloud.

Here are some suggestions that may help during the session file access issue from one drive,

• You can pause the OneDrive syncing and then try to work on the files. (this has worked in many cases)
• Stopping and restarting or re-synchronizing the OneDrive process might also resolve this problem.
• If possible, save or move the files to a local disk.

Thanks,

Deepak
