I have a Crystal report which is having a data source from MS SQL server. I am always getting this error when we want to show the report:
Unknown Query Engine Error
Error in File C:\Users\ADMINI~1\AppData\Local\Temp\Test.rpt:
Unknown Query Engine Error
This only happens in Program files (X86) . If i run application to create crystal report file in another folder - its work . Please help me

The "works in another folder" detail suggests a write-permission issue, since Crystal needs to write temp files during report processing and Program File (x86) is a protected location that the running account usually can't write to.
The simplest fix is to install the application somewhere the running user has write access.

Hi @Eduard Kenin ,
Since the issue only occurs when the application is running from Program Files (x86), another quick test would be to run the application as Administrator. If the report works in that case, it would further indicate a permissions issue with the installation folder or one of the locations Crystal Reports uses for temporary files.
Also, check whether the application is creating the .rpt file, exported reports, or any temporary files within the Program Files (x86) directory, as standard users typically do not have write access there.
Thanks,
Akhil.
