Do you have access to that directory? try running as admin? try not running as admin. Did you build this tool? basically this tool is using the python package - and apparently has some issues. without knowing what's in this tool and if you have a working python tool outside of this tool - it's impossible to diagnose.

You can try the following steps:

1. Run as Administrator:

   • Even if you are using a non-admin version of Alteryx, try running Alteryx Designer Desktop as an administrator when using this tool. Right-click on the Alteryx Designer Desktop icon and select "Run as administrator."

2. Check Tool Documentation:

   • Review the documentation provided with the QVD tool on the GitHub repository. There may be specific instructions or requirements mentioned that could help resolve any issues.

3. Tool Compatibility:

   • Make sure that the version of the QVD tool you downloaded is compatible with the version of Alteryx Designer Desktop you are using. Tools may be version-specific, and using an incompatible version can lead to errors.

4. Review GitHub Issues:

   • Check the GitHub repository for the QVD tool. Look for any open issues or discussions related to the "Access denied" or "SDK tool process failed" errors. The tool's author or the community may have provided solutions or workarounds.

5. Contact Tool Author:

   • Reach out to the author of the QVD tool directly through GitHub or any contact information provided. They may be aware of the issue and have suggestions for resolving it.

6. Alternative Tools:

   • If the issues persist and you are unable to resolve them, consider looking for alternative QVD tools for Alteryx. There might be other tools available that are more compatible with your Alteryx environment.
