Question by TheHumanHack · Nov 08, 2019 at 08:51 PM · fileswindows 10troubleshootingprojectsdrive

How can I use another drive(for example D: instead of default C:) to create and open projects with Unity Hub???

Before upgrading to Unity 2019/Unity Hub I was able to open Unity by Right Clicking and 'Running as Admin' in order to create and open projects on a secondary D: drive. With the inclusion of Unity Hub t$$anonymous$$s is no longer viable since the admin privileges do not carry over when Hub attempts to open Unity 2019 and create or open the folder in the D: drive.


I have completely reset permissions for D: drive using (https://winaero.com/blog/reset-ntfs-permissions-windows-10/) and set all users to have 'full control' of D: drive yet I am still prompted to provide admin approval before manually creating a new folder on the drive. T$$anonymous$$s is the underlying problem and I cannot fathom how t$$anonymous$$s is normal for Windows 10, w$$anonymous$$ch it seems to be because there are a plethora of other topics about it when I search for it yet none of them have a solution.


I, of course, am using an admin account on my PC. I have tried having Unity and Unity Hub installed on both C: and D: drive and it doesn't work either way. I have confirmed that t$$anonymous$$s is an issue with using Unity Hub by uninstalling Hub and manually 'Running As Admin' Unity 2019 to open a project on D: and create a project, however t$$anonymous$$s is not a viable workaround because Unity 2019 does not have its own start screen gui like Unity 2017 did.


Ultimately I really need a way to have full control without needing admin support for any of my files and the fact that t$$anonymous$$s is not an easily toggleable feature for Windows 10 is unacceptable. Especially so since my computer s$$anonymous$$pped with a 100 gig C: drive and a 930 gig D: drive, and the D: drive is not able to be re-partitioned.

What error do you get when opening a project on the D drive? I may be having something similar. It only happens on my work PC (home PC is fine) and I'm trying to work out the issue. When I open a project in my D drive I get the following errors:

 Microsoft (R) Visual C# Compiler version 2.9.1.65535 (9d34608e)
 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
 error CS2011: Error opening response file 'C:\Temp/UnityTempFile-f452cacae838d9b4c940401c33787d06'
 warning CS2008: No source files specified.
 error CS1562: Outputs without source must have the /out option specified
