I am trying to simply copy a file to my local appdata directory but unsuccessfully:

If Not FileExists($dir & "\tessdata\eng.traineddata") Then ConsoleWrite("FILE NOT FOUND") ;file is found
ConsoleWrite(FileGetAttrib ($dir & "\tessdata\eng.traineddata") & @CRLF)  ;returns A, for archive
If Not FileExists(@LocalAppDataDir & "\Tesseract-OCR\tessdata\") Then ConsoleWrite("DIR NOT FOUND")  ;directory is found
ConsoleWrite(FileGetAttrib (@LocalAppDataDir & "\Tesseract-OCR\tessdata\") & @CRLF) ; returns D, for directory

If Not FileCopy($dir & "tessdata\eng.traineddata", @LocalAppDataDir & "\Tesseract-OCR\tessdata\eng.traineddata", $FC_OVERWRITE + $FC_CREATEPATH) Then
    ConsoleWrite("FILE COULD NOT BE CREATED" & @CRLF)
EndIf

The file is never copied but the directory structure is created successfully. I am not sure if there is something missing in my code but I am not seeing it.

I have tried using the directive #RequireAdmin to get UAC but it's not working anyway.
