OpenCV failed to install

[IvRogoz]

Hello,

Ive started the Blender with admin privilege's but get this error ?

Installing collected packages: opencv-python ERROR: Could not install packages due to an OSError: [WinError 5] Access is denied: 'D:\Blender\3.1\python\Lib\site-packages\cv2\cv2.pyd' Consider using the --user option or check the permissions.

Hey there,

I guess it's an issue due to permissions. While you should have them as admin, there is probably something in your filesystem holding you back. Check this link on how to change permissions (in this case mainly the blender folder and the 'D:\Blender\3.1\python\Lib\site-packages\cv2\cv2.pyd' file are most likely having some permission setting which lead to the issue) https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/im-administrator-but-am-getting-denied-access-to/b0bd1447-2896-4a16-ad9d-7953e41a4a30

is your issue already solved by now? If not, could you try the build from the development branch? v1.5.1.
