Fix - if you cant see Recorded TV after Win 10 1511 Nov Update

I got this issue when I upgraded to Windows 10, and now it happened again after the Win 10 November update.  The Emby NextPVR plugin is showing live TV fine, but not the Recorded TV.  Its not Emby's Fault - as the NEWA guide also does not work i.e go to http://server:8866/Guide2.aspx and you will get this instead of the guide :

 

The current identity (NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM) does not have write access to 'C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files'.

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. 

Exception Details: System.Web.HttpException: The current identity (NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM) does not have write access to 'C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files'.

Source Error: 

An unhandled exception was generated during the execution of the current web request. Information regarding the origin and location of the exception can be identified using the exception stack trace below.

 

 

So - to fix this, create the directory 'Temporary ASP.NET Files' as above - as it is no longer there after a Win 10 upgrade.

 

Hope this helps someone else - it was a pain to find last time to fix this when I upgraded to Win 10.

Hi,

 

This happened again with the latest large Windows 10 large update.  I guess it is a thing that needs to be done each time MS release a major change.

Hi, thanks for the info!

posting to this again so it gets to the top - if you have updated to the new windows 10 update, this issue happens again - same fix as last time.

Another easy way to do this is to rerun the NextPVR installer as it will recreate the folder that Windows Update changes.

I think just creating a folder is easier than re-running nextPVR install though.
