PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'C:/XXXX' windows 10
I just installed Windows 10 on this machine. I previously had no problem. Running the application as admin makes no difference.
I am getting this error:

I'm at loss for a solution.
I'm admin, running pycharm as admin... what else does it want?

Hi,
When do you get this error? Upon PyCharm lauch, on code execution, or any other action? If it's on code execution, does it happen with any script?
Hi,
The error was due to the script path not being the .py script. For some reason I managed to not do this mistake for a while...
I get the same error using PyCharm 2020.1.20(Professional Edition). Please explain what "script path not being the .py script" means and how I can fix the issue. I'm a student and Google has not been my friend when it comes to finding a solution to this problem and running as administrator hasn't helped. My script works fine from the command line and fails with the following error in PyCharm. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I too have same error
Make sure your run configuration (Run | Edit Configurations...) points to the script you want to run.
Create a __init__.py in the outermost part having your main folders of code...run that __init__.py....it fixed for me
Call ur code from...__init__.py
i have thesame problem
the run configuration int thcharm is ok
what did you write in __init__.py?
I had the same issue after changing python directory. Then I changed interpreter setting to neww python directory then 'Run' the code from the Menu and selected 2nd 'Run' option or you can just use shortcut as Alt+Shift+F10' and a small window appears with your code file name then select the filename which you cant to Run.
This resolved my issue!
