Administrator Permission For Installation - Error Getting File Security (1326)
Feb 20, 2011
As far as I know I have full administrative privileges and UAC is off. I am the sole user and this is the only account. I tried to install a new version of VMware Stand Alone Converter. I right clicked and ran as administrator. It asked about removing old version and I checked OK. It runs and pops up a box at end with this fault:
I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. This is the first software I've ever had a problem with. Is this a Windows problem or a VMware problem? Does VMware Workstation need admin privileges even though it's a separate program?
If I click on hyperlink (Windows 7) it says I need to have the administrator (me) grant permission. I have not been able to find a point at which I can do that. Where can I change that setting?
I'm trying to move some files from my old (soon to be retired) XP Pc to my new Win 7 PC but am having problems?I am the only user on both machines and after checking user accounts on both machines I am described as Administrator. On the Win 7 machine I have UAC set at "Never Notify".I tried to map the C: drive on the Win 7 PC as drive Z: on the XP machine (I can see the Win 7 drive on the win XP Machine ). but it says "access is denied" When I do it the other way around I can map the Win XP drive on the Win 7 machine with no problems, but there are some files it won't let me copy over. It says:"You need permission to perform this action""You require permission from the computer's administrator to make changes to this file"
I have been getting this error for a while on anything from Adobe or Apple that I try and install or uninstall. I tried to reinstall Adobe Premiere Elements 8 and I got this error when it was trying to uninstall it prior to reinstalling it. I tried to install Adobe Premiere Elements 9 trial and I get the same error just before it completes installation. I have the UAC turned off, and I've tried doing this as Administrator.
I get this error if I try and uninstall an earlier version of Adobe Acrobat Reader (I have the new one installed as well). And I get this error if I try and update Apple ITunes, or QuickTime. I get notices all the time to update but it never works. I do have working versions of all this software on my computer but can't seem to update any of them. I would like to update to the new version of Premiere Elements.
When trying to install Premiere Elements 9 the complete error message reads as: "Error 1326 Error Getting File Security C:programdataPhotoshop ElementscatalogsGetLastError5".
i am trying to create a new site in dreamweaver. the site will have a coldfusion extension (.cfm). i am the only user on my notebook so i have complete administrator privileges. however, when i try to save the site in the c:inetpubwwwroot folder (because that's where coldfusion applications are saved) i always get an error.the error says: "you don't have permission to save to this location. contact the administrator to obtain permission" i thought i was the administrator? i am unable to change the settings in the security tab in the properties panel either. that is the extent of my troubleshooting capabilities.
I am installing Windows 7 (Custom installation initiated from Windows XP) but I get the following error message when the installation is on the "Installing updates" step of the installation:
"Setup cannot continue due to a corrupted installation file. Contact the vendor of your Windows installation disc or your system administrator for assistance."
Do you have any idea what the problem may be with the installation? Is there a way to see what file that may be corrupted?
I have tried to burn the DVD in low speed, but the error appears anyway. I have a MSI K8T Neo2-Fir mainboard and the Windows 7 upgrade advisor application says that my hardware is okay for upgrading.
I've seen a lot of complaints about this problem but no solutions.I am getting this message:error getting file securityc:ProgramDataAppleComputerInstaller CacheQuickTime 7.65.75.0GetLastError: 5when I try to upgrade from iTunes 10.0.0.68 to 10.3.1. This includes anupgrade of QuickTime.Any ideas on how to really fix this so that I can upgrade
I went to install the newest itunes last night, and during the instalation I got the message "error getting file security". I right clicked the installation file and ran as administrator, and have my UAC all the way down.
I saved my files on desktop and when i shifted to window 7 64bit they were brought to windows old folder. my problem is those files wo'nt open and i have been asked for permission!
i've been having problems with folders sometimes i can't delete them saying i don't have permission when i'm the admin.i did some research and used a program lockhunter to see what is locking the folder and it came up with svchost. it wouldn't unlock it though.it seems that security permissions is messed up some how and i can't figure out how to fix it.
I cannot install microsoft visual studio, although the installation don't give any error and finalize with message "successful installation" and I discover that exists folders that cannot be deleted and I suspect the installer can update the files.
Whenever I insert my pen-drive and try to delete any folder, then it says you need permission from administrator to perform the action/to delete the folder.
We have an application(Myapp.exe), which is runs under administrator account properly( as it edit/update/write DLL in registry). But due to to security resons we dont want to provide Admin password to all users, and we want to run application under Standard User ( member of Users group only).I did these setting in MyApp.exe.manifest<requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="false" /> and linked in the file MyApp.rc as given below
I'm facing some trouble installing windows 7 x64 build 7057
When i click "install now" button after booting from the DVD-Rom. I get an error at times stating that i need DVD/CD-Rom Device Drivers and it does not detect the harddrive. However if i wait a little while before clicking the "Install Now" button, i pass on to Licence Agreement page.
From there i get a choice to Upgrade or Custom Install. If i chose upgrade it gives compatibility issue report as i do not have any OS running on the Drive i wan to Install Windows 7 on.
When i chose Custom i get to choose a partition. I chose the Primary Drive C partition as this 120GB hdd has no windows installed (my regular 500GB HDD that has winxp and vista64 is physically disconnected through this process). The Partition 1 has 29.8GB free when formated. I start the installation on that
The first Step "Copying Windows Files" takes few seconds and reaches 100% without error
The Second Step "Expanding Windows Files" stays on 0% for around 5 to 10 minutes and returns an error:
"Windows Cannot Install Required Files. Make Sure all files required for Installation are available, and restart the installation."
After I click 'OK', it says on the Screen "The installation was cancelled. Any changes that were made to your computer during the installation process will not be saved."
I do not understand if this is my hardware related issue or do i have a bad DVD. My DVD seems to be loading up fine and files do copy around from it. The ISO i copied this from seems to be ok. Could someone explain why am I facing this error and how can I solve it?
Not sure if this is in the appropriate area, sorry about that but i am having said error when trying to install/repair/remove anything with windows installer ?
I have Vista Home Premium 64 bit and I'm trying to upgrade to 7. I bought the college copy so I only have the download, no DVD.
When I get to like 10% of installation I get error 0x80070241, and it says that a file is corrupted or missing and installation cannot continue.
I know everyone hates n00bs who ask questions that have already been answered, and I did google this first (and call Microsoft), but the results I found on google went right over my head and Microsoft was not helpful at all (I shot them off an e-mail thinking I might get better service that way, but they haven't responded yet.)
Anyway, what can I do? I really really want Vista off my computer but it like refuses to die lol.
The contents of several file and folders has gone missing. This includes the "My Pictures" library (my biggest concern) and a few others. Like a couple random Games, Steam, just odd seemingly random folders. This may have been caused by some recent changes, which I will get into- but I am pretty close to just saying several thousand pictures are just...gone.Secondary Problem: I recently had a pretty scary ordeal with the user profiles on my machine. When attempting to login, it would state that the User settings had been altered and would not let me log in. That has been taken care of now, but I feel the two problems are connected, and this is why:Several days ago I was attempting to install a Logitech Web Camera onto my Windows 7 X86 OS. Logitech does not provide drivers for this OS or support the installation, but I have in fact been able to install it in the past with some clever workarounds. While attempting to re-create the troublesome install I had used in the past I caused the Profile problem.The Logitech cam Drivers (Model V-uu22 Drivers for Vista if that is important) touch many parts of the machine they are installed on. There is a sub-folder that is installed in the "My Pictures" folder for storing your webcam snapshots, then a folder in the "Movies" library for a similar function. There is also a sub folder that is placed in the user profile area that stores your user information (I assume) So, while installing these drivers and trying to get them to work again my machine froze up mid-install and demanded a reboot. Upon reboot the user profile would not let me login, then when I rebooted once more to attempt to fix it, the boot file was destroyed. So, in goes the recovery disc, boot from CD and fixed the boot.ini file. Finally gain access to the windows logon and still the problem remains. It took hours to figure this whole thing out. booted into safe mode, deleted the improper SID (SP?) for the users that had somehow been created and ended up just having to use a restore point to undo all the changes. Long story short, I got it working and now the file contents are all wonky.
Now, seeing as I used a restore point to fix the issues, I don't see how the logitech install could have been the culprit, but all of my pictures are gone. I have searched the machine, used a file recovery service, looked all over and now I am coming here.Steps taken to find pictures: File recovery, Showing hidden files, searching all files, Ensuring that the user profiles had not been damaged, lots of google searches, you name it.I did notice, however, that there were hidden files and folders on both my drives that are labeled "pictures", "movies" etc. But I cannot access them. I am on an administrator account, I attempted to change the file permissions using the properties interface of the folders and do not have access, even tried the takedown command on them, but I am not using FAT. I simply have no idea what to do now.
Another thing of note: I use my XBOX 360 to wireless stream content from my machine to the Televisions in my home. I notice that the pictures all made it to the Console, and are viewable- but it seems as if the XBOX has created another User profile that I have no access to and moved the items in question there.All in all this has been very perplexing, and I know the pictures are there, somewhere, and have not been deleted- I just have trouble wrapping my head around what user profile they may be in and how to gain access to that folder.
Specs: MS Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1, AMD Athlon II X2 245 Regor 45nm Technology, Mobo: ASRock M3A770DE, AMD Radeon HD 6800. I also have Hijackthis reports and have run full anti-virus and anti spyware on the machine several times.
I am bashing my head and getting nowhere with windows 7....I have 3 users; a, b, and c (say)and administrator; z (say)when logged into z, I want to copy the folder of user 'a' but when I try to do this it comes up with ..."you'll need to provide administrator permission to copy this folder"But...whatever I try and do it will not allow me to copy the folder in question.
I searched everywhere on the internet and nothing works. I need to take ownership or a file so i can delete it but it does not let me. Command prompt does not work. It's really starting to annoy me that I cannot delete these files.
When I try to install my new Kensington USB Display Adapter(sort of a video board) on my recent (2 weeks old) Lenovo "ideaCentre B3" computer I get this error msg. "Error opening installation log file. Verify that the specified log file location exists and is writable."
Windows7 home Premium, 64 bit
Kensington said download new "Setup.exe" file when that gave same error, they said not our problem go away. also tried run as admin - same problem!
Lenovo said software is not under warranty it will cost a lot of money to troubleshoot - call microsoft.
Microsoft said this is an OEM product call Lenovo.
I am running Windows 8. I know this forum is for Windows 7, but the Windows 8 forum is under developed and doesn't really have any members yet.I am selling my laptop, so I'm installing Windows 7 since I have Windows 8 now. I was going to install it off a flash drive. Every time I go to try to transfer the Windows 7 Starter files onto the flash drive, I can't transfer 1 file. It says I need to permission to move it
Recently I have been receiving lots of File Permission Errors when saving documents.I have searched the internet endlessly and have still not found a solution.Sometimes, when I save from Word (2010) I get this error: Quote :Word cannot complete the save due to a file permission error.
I just got this computer. I have some files I can't open because it says I don't have permission. Example, one is a file with music that was copied from old computer. I have read about sharing but don't understand it. how I can make all files so I cam open them?
I'm trying to copy a music file from my laptop to my pc and i get this message " you need permission to preform this action". How do i give my permission? seems kinda sill not to be able to copy files from one to the other.
Whenever I try to change something in program files, windows doesn't allow me, says that: You require permission from administrators to make changes to this file. But I am the administrator, I have checked alot of times.
I am trying to move a .dll file from one of my folders in Downloads to Program Files (x86)/some_folder, but it keeps showing "you require permission from my_machine/Owner to make changes to this file", so I can't finish the job; I tried take owner ship of the dll file, but it didn't work.
Here is what I tried: First of all, I changed the own ship of the .dll file located in Download folder to my_machine/Owner(full control), and then i changed the own ship of program files(x86)/destination folder to my_machine/Owner(full control) as well; then tried to move the dll file to the destination, failed. Then I turned off the UAC, tried but failed again. The error msg is still "you require permission from my_machine/Owner to make changes to this file".
