You can make a copy of the netbeans.conf in your <netbeans
userdir>/etc/netbeans.conf

Yes, I don't have permission. The entire directory tree including all
files is marked as "Read Only" and all the files are owned by
"Administrators" (and no group set, group is "None"). The read-only
bit seems to be the main problem, but I suspect that the file
ownership will also figure in to there somewhere as well. Trying to
edit this as text file (Gvim) doesn't allow me to change the file even
with :w! And even if I run Explorer with Admin permissions it would
let me change the read only status. It runs and doesn't report an
error, but the read only status remains.
At minimum this is really inconvenient. At worst I guess I might have
to wait for a fix and then re-install.
I think I'd be happier with a configuration file under my users
directory, say in a .netbeans directory or something, that I owned and
I could just change as needed.

Failing how? Maybe you don’t have permissions on the file?

much. I'd like to see changes to the installer to specifically
permit
easier editing of that file, and maybe a review to identify other

that the user might reasonably need make changes to.
Corollary: does anyone know how to change netbeans.conf under
windows
10? I'd appreciate the help.
