Thanks for the reply. I noticed that files in C:\Users\houde\AppData\Local\Programs\stack always revert back to read-only even if I change permissions or uncheck "read-only" . It does not seem to be due to "Controlled Folder Access" feature that comes with Windows Defender because I have another antivirus. Should I still open an issue on github because it does not seem related to stack. All my folders under AppData are read-only. Is there a way to tell stack to install ghc and other binaries to another folder ?
I'm on Windows 10 and installed stack with ghcup.
