Hi,
I hope this additional information can help you with my issue that I highlighted in an earlier email, below?
I am trying to sync a pre-existing 'TransactAT' Sierra chart with 'cqg/ironbeam'.
Regards,
Drew

Hello,
My name is Drew Schedler.
My Sierra accout name is dschedler.
I am having issues opening my sierra charts.
I currently have TransactAT charting downloaded on my laptop because I was using TransactAT for a free demo.

Now I am signed on with Cannon Futures to trade through Ironbeam using a CQG data Feed.
Do I need to remove the TransactAT file on my computer, or can I continue using the Sierra program files therein?
If so, is there any way to save and re-apply my chart setting to the new version of Sierra?
In my TransactAT free Sierra Chart trial, I created my own set of charts called "DrewsCustom.cht".
I am hoping I can retrieve this configuration?

I have tried to download sierra anew from the sierra website but receive an error message -- failed to create folder -- as follows:
Any help on this matter is appreciated.
Regards,
Drew

PS I left the screenshots out as instructed

I have tried downloading again without success.
I sent the installer logfile as instructed in Step 2 above.

Access Denied is what I am searching for on the support board now.
Can you please supply additional info?
Thank you!

Hi,
I was able execute Sierra chart download successfully.
The issue was with the default destination pathway.
I had to force it to go to my sierra file in a new partition and overwrite it.
Yet, I am still not able to connect.
I am getting locked out with valid credentials.
There are still remnants of TransactAT files present in the download.
Should these be removed?
Thank you,
Drew
