build substrate ink contract

Question

I trying to create a substrate smart contract by following the tutorial as described in https://substrate.dev/substrate-contracts-workshop/#/0/setup . I have installed all the dependencies on Windows 10 OS. However, the process fails after completing 3 steps ( [3/5] Optimizing wasm file) with the following error message.

"ERROR: Access is denied. (os error 5)"

Please help me in resolving this error.

Thanks

Maybe try an admin console? But ideally developing in WSL2 is best if you can. You'll have a lot less trouble that way.
