Hi there. I have this error come up for me whenever I try to run sidr on a mounted image which is a E01 image mounted via Arsenal image mounter as write temporary image. I have browsed the file system to ensure no UAC issues are present and have been able to run other tools on the image. It gives me an error that points to a directory that doesn't exist in the E01 image, there is no Documents and Settings directory present

Sidr gives me the following errors when I try to run it:

PS C:\Users\DFIR\Downloads\DFIR Tools\sidr\target\release> .\sidr.exe -f csv G:\

thread 'main' panicked at src\main.rs:51:13:
Could not read dir 'G:\Documents and Settings': Access is denied. (os error 5)
note: run with RUST_BACKTRACE=1 environment variable to display a backtrace

I am on sidr 0.9.2, and I built it using the provided instructions, cloning repo, using cargo build etc. I am on windows OS Name: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro, OS Version: 10.0.19045 N/A Build 19045 I am also on cargo 1.86.0 (adf9b6ad1 2025-02-28), which was used to build sidr

Hi! Thanks for filing an issue. A few questions to make sure I understand your environment:

1. Can you run with RUST_BACKTRACE=1 and paste the output here?
2. Are you running Powershell as Administrator?
3. In File Explorer, if you paste G:\Documents and Settings in the address bar, what happens?
