Hi ~ (my english is not well....)

I used Lightroom 6 for win, it is very well.
I have a question, someone can help me?

Question:

when I close LR 6, this program will show catalog backup message,

I click the "backup" ,  it tell me "no permission"  to backup catalg

"Lightroom cannt backup Lightroom Catalog"
"Try" , "Chose anther backup file path" , "End"

I chose "Chose anther backup file path"  many times,
and chose ""a lot of file path, ex: c:\ , d:\  or any disk
but It always show  "no permission"

my pc: windows 10 home/ x64   Lightroom 6
my pc account: use administrator account.

The folder the backup system is trying to use doesn't have the proper permissions set on it so LR can Write to that folder. You can choose a different folder that your user name does have write permissions to or you can change the permissions on the folder it want to use.

It is not the Lightroom folder.

You must choose a folder on another drive.

When you see the "Back Up Catalog" dialog you must [Choose...]  the folder to change it to another location.

The folder you have been using is shown in this dialog.

The folder shown in the  "Back Up Catalog" dialog must have Read/Write full permissions.
