Issue: Windows User Permissions with snapp_cli

Several users have encountered issues when attempting to use the snapp_cli on Windows, particularly related to file access. Since the snapp_cli involves file operations, it's essential that users have the necessary permissions to avoid "Access Denied" errors.

Cause:

The issue appears to stem from insufficient administrator privileges when working with files through the CLI on Windows systems.

Proposed Solution:

  1. Investigate whether Windows has a functionality similar to sudo in Linux/Unix systems that could be utilized to grant the necessary permissions directly within the CLI.
  2. As an alternative, update the documentation to highlight this issue, advising users to run their terminal as an administrator when using the snapp_cli on Windows.
