Changing the plastic.exe.config file

Hi guys! I have come across the "The path is too long" error in plastic. My art team is using super long paths for their stuff, and when i googled about this error, plastic has a simple solution for Windows 10 users that after changing the registry options, or Group settings, the plastic.exe.config should be edited with the following line:  <AppContextSwitchOverrides value="Switch.System.IO.UseLegacyPathHandling=false;Switch.System.IO.BlockLongPaths=false" />

When i try to edit this file with the line and save the file, after being opened with either visual studio or notepad, it says i have not enought permisions to save this, and there is no "open as administrator" when i right click the file.

We are using the Plastic GUI, but this problem persists for both gui config file and cm config file.

Thanks in advance!

UPDATE: This was already solved by editing the users windows permisions
