Issues after migrating Qlikview to a new server

After migrating Qlikview to a new server, the QVD files can not be reloaded.

An error prompts when loading: Failed to open file in written mode.

See attached steps taken which lead to this error.

(This is a follow up on my previous post: Updating Qlikview from November 2017 SR4)

I wil get in contact with my IT department with regards to the Windows error for the .QVW access.

Te .QVD the script contains the STORE command. It is located at the end before a table is dropped. So it is not the exact last line no.

The QVDs look to be locked.

It would be good to inspect the file with the Process Monitor tool.
