.coursier\cache\v1\.structure.lock (Access is denied)

See original GitHub issue

I had to comment out this line:

addSbtPlugin("io.get-coursier" % "sbt-coursier" % "1.0.0-RC12")

in my plugins/build.sbt, after I started getting the following error on any/all Scala projects I tried to build this morning:

coursier.ResolutionException: Exception during resolution                                                        
Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Users\me\.coursier\cache\v1\.structure.lock (Access is denied)

I have some good news, I think, at least if you’re running Windows 10 instead of an earlier version of Windows. It turned out before, at work, I was running Windows 8.1 Pro, not Windows 10 as I thought. The IT folks just upgraded my work laptop to Windows 10 Pro, and the issue I had with .structure.lock before has completely vanished, that is, the program I wrote using Coursier now works well on Mac, GNU/Linux and Windows (10).

2022-11-11: I just ran into this issue with ‘sbt 1.5.8’ on a Windows Server. Just in case if you run into the problem, I was able to resolve this (without knowing what has completely fixed it).

Re-installing the sbt Cleaning .ivy2 directory (this is likely the cause) Cleaning ~.,sbt directory Make sure that all local dependencies are built

It appears that if we encounter an unresolved reference, then the sbt reports the lock failure.
