Lenovo BIOS extraction issue about driverautomationtool

[baardhermansen]

I had the same Access denied when downloading driver, but BIOS worked fine.
After asking Maurice in a post on facebook, he suggested switching to the Beta version. That solved it for me at least, might be worth a shot for you too, @Ru66erDucky99.

What was the fix for this? I am getting this same problem on Server 2019 using DAT 6.4.9

Start-Process : This command cannot be run due to the error: Access is denied.

@grandslamjmh Back in may the fix was to use the beta version, but i've yet to experience the same with 6.4.9. Admittedly i don't run the tool on servers, might be a diff there?

I will try running from a workstation and see if things get better. Thanks.
