Hi @julielerman this fix is in 6736, however, since you mentioned update, you need to remove the previous .templateengine folder that is having the wrong permission

cd ~
#carefull!!!
sudo rm -rf .templateengine/

or you can change the permission of the folder to user because the root cause of the problem is the folder is created by root incorrectly

I’m hitting this. I had the problem with 2.0.0-preview3-6694, then just updated to 6736 and still getting it. I was able to SUDO dotnet new but then I couldn’t save changes to any of the files so had to run sudo code from command. Also mac (I guess with “sudo” you could tell) So it DOES look like you have a fix merged in. What version should I be looking for? Thanks
