Hello, I often encounter this error on various packages and on different machines:

Code: Select all

File "C:\Program Files (x86)\wapt\waptpackage.py", line 2595, in unzip_package
    zip.extractall(path=target_dir)
  File "zipfile.py", line 1647, in extractall
  File "zipfile.py", line 1701, in _extract_member
PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'C:\\WINDOWS\\TEMP\\waptj3mpanee\\Deploy.exe'

13 : Permission denied
Do you know her or do you have any leads?
THANKS,
Sincerely.

Hello,

I'm relying on an antivirus that removes "Deploy.exe" during decompression.

Try sending Deploy.exe to VirusTotal?

Thanks, according to VirusTotal, it works with our antivirus.

But thanks for the suggestion; I'll check with those who configure our antivirus. You can close this.

Hello Jean-Jacques,

thank you for your reply. We should check with the antivirus team to see if they received any alerts. This is the most common type of problem related to your symptoms. If there are no alerts in the antivirus logs, we'll need to investigate further. Regarding the VirusTotal results, the antivirus might say OK, but we could see the EDR of the same brand flagging the same file...

The Wapt package is a Zip file; you can verify that the .exe file was indeed included in the Wapt package and that it wasn't omitted during packaging (we had a bug with file enumeration in a Zip package in an older version of Wapt). Your file isn't anything unusual, like it's not 20GB on its own, is it?

Best regards,

Denis
