Are you using Windows 10? It has a fit when you try to download files
into its protected directories like C:\Program Files (x86)\Elecraft\KX3
Utility. I don't have the KX3 Utility but the K3 utility has an option
to place downloaded files somewhere in the User directory. Windows
should accommodate this by setting up a directory in
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData. Check that out and see if it helps.
