Description
Describe the bug
When orgmode tries to update grammar on start-up/calling Org install_tree_sitter_grammar.
on nvim start-up:
Updating tree-sitter grammar...
vim.schedule callback: [orgmode] Failed to move generated tree-sitter parser to runtime folder: Acesso negado.

Additional context
- i tried this temporary fix on Org.setup:
function Org.setup(opts)
opts = opts or {}
local config = require('orgmode.config'):extend(opts)
-- FIX --
pcall( function() config:install_grammar() end )
-- FIX --
instance = Org:new()
instance.setup_called = true
vim.defer_fn(function()
if config.notifications.enabled and #vim.api.nvim_list_uis() > 0 then
Org.files:load():next(vim.schedule_wrap(function()
instance.notifications = require('orgmode.notifications')
:new({
files = Org.files,
})
:start_timer()
end))
end
config:setup_mappings('global')
end, 1)
return instance
end
it still fails to update the grammar, but at least it initializes without error
-
obs: Acesso negado means Denied access (portuguese, windows error)
-
for what i checked, it is related to trying to delete/update the org.so parser file while it's being used
-
this may have something with nvim-treesitter, as i don't remember of having this error before installing it

Research direction
Start in lua/orgmode/utils/promise.lua at install_grammar, then trace its callers in lua/orgmode/init.lua and lua/orgmode/org/global.lua. Reproduce the startup or :Org install_treesitter_grammar failure on Windows and inspect the parser move or replacement step. Done means the grammar updates without an access-denied error and checkhealth reports it is current.
