Try reinstalling VFXCentral from the website: https://fsfxpackages.com/en/vfxcentral/

That is what I did few minutes ago.

Seems that problem is solved I MUST run it as administrator to make it work.

Hi Keven,

I seem to be running into the same issue, unfortunately "Run As Administrator" does't seem to be solving it.  I'm on a new fresh PC install of Win10 Pro 1703.

.NET framework is installed

Based on the error message is does appear to be a permissions issue but not sure why - VFX Central was installed into D:\OldProp Solutions Inc\VFXCentral - error:

Any suggestions?

UPDATE:

I solved this issue with a simple reboot.  I guess there is something specific that got installed that requires a reboot, however the installer didn't indicate a reboot was required.
