Odd .sys error

[Solaris17]

I got the following error trying to open GPU-Z on server 2019.

It had worked previously but wouldn't today. So I uninstalled it and attempted to reinstall but it will not even launch far enough to ask me if it would like installation.

For shits and giggles I went into appdata\local\temp and created the 2 folder manually and it launched without issue. (it also would not launch or create the folder when I attempted to run as admin.)

That's one of those "You have permissions to look at this folder, but the program doesn't" errors.

I usually make a temp directory under the main C drive, and direct things to it; that solves a bunch of those errors.

If it's a "work machine", realize it lowers security.

Can you check what your temp directory is set to, and why it has a 2 in there?

Odd, when I use the sys variable %temp% it drops me into the /2/ folder.

However variables are not set to /2/

The only other software using the dir, appears to be nvidia.
