I'm experiencing issues with installing or uninstalling packages after upgrade to 7.5.7.
Here's the error:
It tries to create files directly in the App_Data route which causes an error. I've tested this with more than one package and in IIS Express and full-blown IIS.
I tested locally another site with an older install (7.4.3) without issues. I've confirmed I have the issue with 7.5.4 and up. Can't see a difference in permissions between the 7.4.3 site that's working and the 7.5+ that's not! Nothing of note in the logs. Odd one!
So I got to the bottom of this. It appears that in the process of updating through Nuget over the last couple of upgrades that some add/update/deletes from the /Umbraco & /Umbraco_Client folder didn't happen as they were perhaps intended to.
I noticed this by blasting those two folders and copying over a fresh copy from the latest 7.5.7 zip download.
I then restored what should have still been there from my installed plugins etc. via a git compare.
I saw something similar when testing an install of Formulate on Umbraco 7.5.6. Never did figure out why it was happening, but it seemed to resolve if I just deleted all the remnants of Formulate and tried again.

Anyone else experiencing same?
I rolled back to 7.5.6. Same issue. Possibly a permissions error?
It sounds like a permissions error, or it could be that the file is locked when you're trying to write to it.
If you're using IIS Express then it should be running as your own user though.
There is nothing else complex here, like you're App_Data is a virtual directory, I assume?
There might be something in your Windows security error log.
Hey David thanks for chiming in,

Managing packages in the back office works again!
