I cannot scan since downloading Windows 10. It says: You don't have the required privileges to access the specified folder Code 9,244,3
Solved! Go to Solution.

Worked for me too. Many thanks. I spent far too much time on this before I came across your post.

I disabled Windows Defender so that worked on the "Do not have privelege to access specified folder". I can scan now and click "Share". Then attatch document to email, send it, only to find out that it can't be opened by person receiving it. I double checked by going to "Documents" where it is stored. It will not open there either. Any tips will be greatly appreciated.. I wonder if they sell Carrier Pigeons ??

In Windows 10 in 2019, I found out that approving the App in "Windows Security" solves the issue. It seems the issue is a consequence of enhanced security in W10 due to malware and software trying to highjack files. I saw in the thread that some people suggested to completely turn off the "Controlled Folder Access" (in Defender). I suggest instead you allow the app. Doing this sorted out my problem.
Go to "Windows Security".
Then go to "Virus and Threat protection".
Here you find a "Controlled Folder Access".
Here choose to allow the app - Click the plus + sign, Add app, then choose in the listing of the last denied app, the app you would like to allow.

Thank you for the tip. I just disabled Windows Defender and once finished scanning I enabled Windows Defender.
Worked a treat.
