 * I am currently having a problem uploading picture files via the media uploader
   to my site, it was working perfecrtly fine until the weekend, but now when I 
   try and upload any picture files to the site, I get a message saying –
 * The uploaded file could not be moved to C:\wwwroot\development/images/2012/09.
 * I’ve tried everything I can think of to sort this problem, including deactivating
   and reactivating widgets, but nothing is working, so if anybody on here can provide
   me with any solutions, I would be most grateful.

 * Did you install any plugin to cause the problem if so try deactivate the plugin
   see if that solves the problem

 * It seems more to be a Windows permissions issue. Did you by any chance:
 * Or change the NTFS permissions of the directories
 * Or change the user under which the web server is running
