BrightAuthor:connected Known Issues

Windows client errors and closes upon launch

BCN-8469: Fatal error creating/editing presentations
This is likely a permission issue scanning items in the Users folder.
Clear the BA:connected settings (clear %appdata%\BA Connected folder), then launch BA:connected again. Once it launches, create create a presentation outside of the user's folder (not in/under C:\Users) so BA:connected does not try to scan the user's folder.
If the problem is loading a presentation stored in the User's folder, move the .bpfx, presentation folder, and related assets used outside of C:\Users, for example, create a new folder like C:\BA_Connected_Projects or similar to store your presentations.
