## Explain this error: `Unable to create builtin.zig: access denied`
When building or compiling with Zig a build-cache is used.
This particular error indicates filesystem security has prevented access
to a directory or file used in the *global* build-cache.
Fixing permissions should solve the issue.
note: It is safe to manually remove cache directories when no zig compiler process is active.
As of Zig 0.4.0 the build cache can be found in the following locations unless overridden with command-line options:
TYPE | OS | DIRECTORY
:-: | :-: | ---
global | linux | $HOME/.local/share/zig
|| macOS | $HOME/Library/Application Support/zig
|| Windows | %LOCALAPPDATA%\zig
local | all | $PWD/zig-cache
