Access To The Path is Denied

[shaneusername]

Hi all, first off, many thanks for the effort you have put into creating this great library.

I'm currently working on an UWP app to get a list of all MP3s in a folder and for each of these show the various MP3 tags of the files. I'm using the folderPicker.PickSingleFolderAsync() method to select the chosen folder and query.GetFilesAsync() to store a list of the MP3 files in a StorageFile list.

Everytime TagLib.File.Create runs, I get an exception, 2147024891, Access to the path 'D:\DJ Music...' is denied. In my Package.appxmanifest, I've given my app, the full necessary permissions to access all folders.

  <Capabilities>
    <rescap:Capability Name="broadFileSystemAccess"/>    
    <uap:Capability Name="musicLibrary"/>
    <rescap:Capability Name="runFullTrust"/>
  </Capabilities>

Here's my relevant code

            if (folder != null)
            {
                mp3ids.Logging("In code to get list of MP3s in " + mp3ids.FolderPath, "high");

                List<string> fileTypeFilter = new List<string>();
                fileTypeFilter.Add(".mp3");
                var queryOptions = new QueryOptions(CommonFileQuery.OrderByName, fileTypeFilter);
                var query = folder.CreateFileQueryWithOptions(queryOptions);

                mp3ids.fileList = await query.GetFilesAsync();

                mp3ids.Logging("The count of MP3s in the folder is " + mp3ids.fileList.Count, "high");


                foreach (StorageFile file in mp3ids.fileList)
                {
                    mp3ids.Logging("File: " + file.Path, "high");

                    try
                    {
                        var tfile = TagLib.File.Create(file.Path, ReadStyle.Average);

                        FullListOfMP3s.Add(new ListOfMP3s { mp3filename = file.Name, mp3path = file.Path, mp3title = tfile.Tag.Title, mp3artist = tfile.Tag.Performers[0], mp3album = tfile.Tag.Album });
                    }
                    catch (UnauthorizedAccessException Ex)
                    {
                        mp3ids.Logging("Exception: " + Ex.Message, "high");
                        mp3ids.Logging("Exception HResult: " + Ex.HResult, "high");
                    }
                }
            }

Any suggestions on how to fix this? The exception is only thrown when I run taglib. Without taglib, I can access and read the files in the folders without any exception. When I publish and install the app on my desktop, I've also given it the necessary permissions to access file system but still the same result.

Thanks
Shane
