[GRASS-user] GRASS: Permission denied

[Stefan Blumentrath]

Hi Wolfgang,

The OSGeo4W network installer (http://download.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/v2/osgeo4w-setup.exe) should provide you with the following GRASS GIS version (per 24.05.2022):
GRASS GIS 7.8.7 (package "grass")
GRASS GIS 8.0.2 (package "grass8")
GRASS GIS 8.3.dev (package "grass-dev")

You may have to choose "advanced install" to be able to select another (or multiple) GRASS GIS versions.

Cheers
Stefan

Hello Veronica,

thank you for your great help! After having used the OSGeo4W installer, it works fine, i.e. I can start GRASS without admin-rights.

Remarks:

In my first try, I did the standalone-installation with WinGRASS-8.0.1-1-Setup.exe

Now, the installation with OSGeo4W gave me version 7.8.5. But this is fine for me.

With kind regards
Wolfgang
