Hi ,

When I trying to compile B4XDrawer - sliding drawer project, I hit below error. Can anyone please help. I can not find any clue to this problem.

B4A Version: 9.80
Java Version: 8

The problem is that you did install the SDK in a restricted Folder.

Reinstall your SDK. Follow the instructions carefully. It will just work.

Thanks a lot. I actually tried right click the B4A application and chose run as admin. It did solve my problem too.

It is the wrong approach.
You always have to do it when you want to run the jetifier. Also you need to run the SDK Manager as admin when you want to update artifacts.

Having the SDK in a non restricted folder as per installationinstruction is the correct way. No need to run B4A, the SDK Manager or the Jetifier tool as Admin!
