Error Message: Code 5

Post by 76mm »

I left EiA running on my computer today when I went to work, and when I got back and went into EiA there were a few dozen error messages, all the same:
"System Error. Code 5. Access is denied."

I just clicked the OK box on all of them and they went away, so no big deal, but I wanted to mention it in case it offered any clues to any of the other problems you're encountering.

I checked into this and could find nothing in the code itself that might generate this error. It may very well be a system error on your end?

Maybe, although it was within the game screen itself, so I assumed it was a game error. In other words, the error messages were only visible when I maximized the window with the game. I can't say that I've had this error with any other games/programs, but I can't say for sure that it was not some kind of system error on my end. BTW I am running Win10.

sounds more like a permissions error than a pure gaming one, maybe it stopped or didn't have screen saver permissions to run or something else windows needed to do, one it in the main window, or did you minimize it?
