I downloaded the latest buildtools.jar. Ran the command Code (Text): java -jar BuildTools.jar --rev 1.8.4 BuildTools then went about it's business, then right at the end I got this error. Why does keep happening and WHY can I NEVER get this to work?!? Please I don't understand what is going on.

I found out what was going on. Because I was running the jar on my desktop, Windows wasn't allowing certain files to be written because of a permissions issue as you pointed out. I am terribly sorry. I don't know anything about Java and therefore assumed it was something I couldn't fix without asking for help.
I am also experiencing this problem. I have created a folder in documents, and ran the build tools in there. I keep getting the same error over and over again (Access Denied). I would really, really appreciate the help if someone replied.
Thanks for the answer. I had actually just successfully compiled it a few minutes ago. It compiles successfully at random sometimes for me. it took 10 attempts for it to work
