    I have a project on my USB to save space on my laptop, for it is already stretched to its limits with nothing I can get rid of (mostly software). When I try to delete a C#(and probably other things) from the assets folder in Unity, I get an error about the location the project is in, is "read only", yet Unity is obviously writing to it too.

    edit: It does crash Unity too when the error pops up. Rather annoying

    Hello grimofdoom,

    Can you try running Unity as an Administrator and see if that solves the issue you're experiencing?

    Best,
