I am getting this error constantly when trying to generate Visual Studio project files from a .uproject file that I have on a Perforce server. I have VS 2013, Unreal Engine 4.6.1, and Windows 7. I don’t understand what the error means, but every time I try to right click and select “Generate Visual Studio project files” or even launch it, I get the “Couldn’t set association for project. Check the file is writeable” error. I’ve tried re-installing the engine and deleting my workspace and setting up a new one, but nothing has fixed the matter. I’ve also tried to look elsewhere but there seems to be nothing on this issue.
