Hello,
I have this Powershell script running inline in Self Hosted Octopus instance on Windows:
Remove-Item "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\plover" -Recurse
But it gives the following error when run:
PermissionDenied: You do not have sufficient access rights to perform this operation.

The action Copy release to wwwroot on the Octopus Server failed
How do I fix this? Apologies I just started using Octopus but am still a novice.
I added
Write-Host -ForegroundColor Green "$(whoami)" to the script to see the current user its running as and it printed out:
nt authority\system
How do I fix this permission issue? Thanks a lot!
