Wwise not letting me generate the header file!

I want access to the header file but Wwise won't generate it for me. Here is the error it throws:

 Can't write Wwise_IDs.h file        Wwise_IDs.h

Solution for me was simply checking the box "generate header file" in soundbank settings. I would have preferred that the error message had included that in it.

I'd also like to add for anyone else who has this problem: check the file path for the generated soundbanks in your soundbanks settings. My path was incorrect, and that's why I was getting this error.

Also had the same error. Having both the event and the audio container using the same name seemed to be the issue.
