I'm going to pin this on the TaskCluster Windows worker. It is likely that TMP or TEMP is pointing to a directory that the task process doesn't have write privileges to.

needinfo grenade to triage.

if it is the temp data issue, then it's a known one and we can depend on bug 1306989.

you can test if using a folder under the task user directory for temp data will resolve your issue by importing this commit: https://hg.mozilla.org/try/raw-rev/26774c817292e739ea5838be18f74e1255ecd2fe

Comment 4

[Pete Moore [:pmoore][:pete]]

Agreed, this is due to bug 1306989

Comment 5

[Greg Arndt [:garndt]]

Looking at comment 4 it appears that this bug was because of a now resolved bug.  Can this be closed?

Comment 6

[Pete Moore [:pmoore][:pete]]

Agreed! Thanks :garndt for following up.
