Answer 1

For those trying to make a UWP (Universal Windows) application, file permissions are much more restricted, and in general is deny by default. It also supersedes the system user permissions. You will basically only have access to files in either

• Your install location
• Your AppData location
• Files selected through the File or Folder picker
• Locations requested in your App Manifest
