Hi,
Do you have write access to D:\temp\? Does D:\temp\ actually exist? Many windows users somehow end up with environment vars that should point to proper temp file locations, actually pointing to someplace that they (admin will but their userid won't) don't have access to.

Hi, KevinH

I checked it over and found that not the directory D:\temp but the epub file itself was read-only.
