"Error: System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: Access is denied" error in Sourcetree

Thiyagu Palanisamy Mudali

Hello,

Some of the users from our organization are getting the below error while trying to clone the repository using sourcetree. Can you please help me to resolve this issue ?

Error Message:
=========================================

Command: git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false --no-optional-locks ls-remote https://bitbucket.collaboration.agilent.com/scm/TT/TT.git

Output:

Error: System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: Access is denied

This usually means that the account running your application does not have the necessary permissions to run the software. That's something set up in the operating system, it's not a software fault.

Is your user allowed to run git on your system? Try running the command on the command line, outside Sourcetree - do you get the same error?

Thanks for your response. Do you know how to enable the access in OS level ?

We requested user to install Git bash and clone any one of the repository to see if it is working. I am waiting for the user to come back to me.

I am also seeing this issue in SourceTree.

Tried clearing out all user settings, uninstalling and reinstalling.
The same command works in Terminal
git works in Visual Studio
git commands in Terminal work
Other GIT apps work (but I prefer to use SourceTree)
Same issue with GitHub and Azure Devops Repo
All git related buttons functionality doesn't work
- History doesn't show
- Cannot Pull
Running the latest ver 3.4.10
I do notice that the Certificate on the exe expired on 11/27/2022
- Can this be updated in an installer?

We are also having the same issue.

I have tried all of the same things Andrew listed.

If the user does a run-as administrator on SourceTree it will work as expected, but they should not need to do that every time they run the application.
We installed 3.3.9 and it worked for a day, but then stopped working again.
We tried switching to the Embedded Git, restarted and then went back to the system Git.
Tried removing the .NET updates that were installed around the time it broke.
Tried moving the local repository to another folder.

Not able to get anything to work so far. Any help would be great!
