Windows XP SP2 will begin installation, but about midway through the install,
installation stops with the same error message. The error message is (access
denied). I have tried countless times to install this update using automatic updates as well as using the CD, all with negative results I'm about ready to update my operating system to XP Professional, I have XP Home Edition. Before installation I followed all the preperation instructionsfound on the Windows website.
I cannot install .NET Framework 1.1 (which I need for several programs). I've tried for weeks to find a fix, but can't. It says ACCESS IS DENIED, PLEASE VERIFY THAT YOU HAVE ACCESS TO THAT DIRECTORY.error 1304 error writing to file c:windowsmicrosoft.netframeworkv1.1.43221033vsavb7rtui.dll verify that you have access to that directory.I am running on admin, and I have Windows XP Home Edition.I've also tried to install .NET 2.0, but also got an error.
I am trying to install USB serial bus controllers so as to run Tata Photon+ modem, but it shows "Access Denied and Installation failed" message. I have Administrtor permissions.
I have been trying to install service pack 3 and failed. About halfway through the installation (according to the progress bar) I get a dialogue box saying <Access denied click OK to cancel>. There are no other options available. Clicking on OK reverses everything done to that point and puts me back to the beginning. There is nothing to indicate what access is denied or which program/setting is doing the denying.
Decided to update my XP installation with the XP2 upgrade. Everything was sailing smoothly until the upgrade halted with an "Access Denied" message. Luckily it deinstalled and reloaded the original XP1 installation successfully - I don't see any problems! If I look at the current setupapi.log, I see several pages of #E197 errors towards the end of the update (the description says, "Writing "C:WINDOWSINF etwzc.inf" to "C:WINDOWSINF" is not an approved method of installing INF files. Use a 'CopyINF' entry instead". Then I see the following:
#-007 Deleting registry key HKCR.AudioCD #E033 Error 5: Access is denied. #E065 Parsing DelReg section [Product.Del.Reg] in "c:windowssoftwaredistributiondownload16b2c96a0c41f4dfdb4d3cc228a4f819 updateupdate.inf" failed. Error 5: Access is denied...............
I just tried installing Service Pack 2 on my XP, and I downloaded it and during installation it stops and simply says "Access Denied" in a little prompt, then says that installation has failed.
My dad accidentally installed Windows XP Over the current working Windows XP Service Pack 2.THis is on an old laptop which has some important school work which I have been trying to get copied to memory stick but with no luck.My dad thought the laptop was running ever so slow and thought that reinstalling XP would make it quicker again.Now after it has done, the laptop not running well at all.It loads but when you choose ANY user account it loads up till the desktop and nothing happens after that. THe start menu and icons don't show up. Its like its got nothing else to load. The task manager can be run (control+alt+del) and everything is responding. have also tried running it in safe mode but the same still happens.THe closest I have got was to use the XP disk and use the recovery console and try to use the command promp to copy the documents and settingsmy documents into the memory stick but when it tries to go to documents and settings it says that the access is denied .
I recently had a computer crash and die, it was an old computer, I don't know what went wrong, I don't really care now because I realize it was old and got a new computer. Anyway I knew my hard drive was still good and I have important data on it that I needed, so i removed it and bought a hard drive enclosure. I hooked it up to my new computer and everything is coming up fine, but my "e://documents and settings/owner/" folder. That was the administrative account document folder that I used for my work. When I try to open it it's giving my an 'Access Denied" error. I can access all the other accounts just fine.
I have some cd's which I cannot access on my XP system. When I try to read one of the CDs, but there is a message stating "SONIC DLA - your version of DLA can read files on this disc but you will not be able to edit or add to them". When I try to accessing the other CD, there is an error message stating "d: is not accessible. access is denied". I did try to install UDF Reader, but I still couldn't access the CDs.
I remember seeing this posted a few weeks ago and wondered if anyone else has come across the problem or a solution. After using MSCONFIG and applying changes I get the message "An access denied error was returned while attempting to change a service you may need to log on using an administrator account to make the specified changes". I've searched high and low and can't find any real reason.. And I'm the only account on my pc. Now for a new twist.. Today when I went by to do some maintainance on a business network out of curiosity I tried MSCONFIG on the computers there and lo and behold they all did the same thing.. These computers have nothing in common with mine as far as firewalls, antivirus, etc. (which I had read might be the culprit). The only thing I know that all have in common is they have all recently have had all Windows updates installed
When I click run and type in msconfig, I get a message saying Access Denied, need administrator privileges, etc.The thing is...I'm already logged in as Administrator automatically and even the icon in the Start menu shows this.
When I hit Start | Run | Ms config, it tells me that access is denied and that I may need to log on as Administrator to make program changes. Only, I'm already logged in as Administrator!What's going on here and how do I fix this so I can run Ms config? I'm running WinXP Home with SP2.
this morning i went to use my desktop computer, and much to my chagrin, apparently I have been denied access to all my programs and files. I suspect that it may have to do with the windows updater, because when i try and log into my user account, i get an error message mentioning registry issues. My computer was runing fine last night when I went to sleep. 'my efforts thus far'= I can run safe mode, and have done a system restore, a malware program sweep, checked user accounts and various programs; and all allow full access to the 'trouble account' according to safe mode. In short, My main account is in lockdown, my safe mode works. The majority of error messages refer to 'denied access' and upon trying to log iin a get the error message '0x80070005'. I have googled my heart out trying to solve this myself, and apparently Microsoft wants 60$ to even hear my problem,
Just set up a new PC (Dell XPS Gen 4) and was running OK for a week with just myself as user with admin rights.
Decided to add limited accounts for wife & kids.
Every time the accounts are logged in to, they get the error message - Error - Access Denied. The process for this is LVCOMSX.EXE somethin to do with the logitech webcam me thinks.
I just recently tried making changes to the startup using msconfig to try to fix a different problem, and in doing so, came across another. Whenever I try to make a change to the startup, I get a "an access denied error was returned while attempting to change a service. You may need to log on using an Administrator account to make the specified changes".
However, I am the administrator when I'm making these changes.
I have managed to repair the OS (XP Home) but am still experiencing one or two problems. The main one at the moment is that though it has downloaded and successfully installed 33 MS Critical Updates it is not able to install Service Pack 2. It gets about half way through installing SP2 and then brings up an "Access Denied" Error.
I'm running XP Pro, finally updating to SP2. About halfway through I get the "Access is denied" error message. I followed Microsoft's instructions to locate the registry subkey causing the problem, however (as shown in the attached picture) the problem isn't in the usual vnd.ms.radio (infact, that file isn't mentioned at all in the setupapi file), but in the DependOnService. Problem is, it doesn't exist under the directories listed. As shown in the second uploaded picture, it's not in the SSDPSRV directory itself, and the only subdirectories are a pyramid of jibberish (none of which contain anything except a "(Default)" value).
My Documents comes up with an error (C:Documents and Settingsuser is not accessible. Access is denied") I dont see how this can be because i am the administrator and the only account on the PC.
operating system went corrupt on the primary SATA HD in my rig and I was forced to <skips the pointless stuff>...basically here I am installing a fresh XP on a new internal. Meanwhile, I hooked up the old HD to an external to rip off the files. good news is that it was able to be read and I could pull off the files. Program files with preferences for my ggames, pretty much everything... EXCEPT My Documents for the primary user (Brian). It says access is denied to this folder, and is marked as read only. Basically, I need a way to get into that folder and get the information out of it. It has all my school/work files (most of which are backed up but some I need), and I'm not exactly sure how to go about that.
I own a SONY VAIO desktop PC, and I'm trying to install the XP Service Pack 2. However, whenever I try to, either when prompted by Windows Automatic Update or when I do it on Microsoft's website, the installation would always pause midway and return with an "Access is Denied" dialogue box. Microsoft's website had something regarding this issue --http://support.microsoft.com/kb/873148 -- but under Step 2, I couldn't find any specific registry key that resembled the one that was given Quote: The found entry in the Setupapi.log file should be similar to the following example: #-007 Deleting registry key HKCRvnd.ms.radio #E033 Error 5: Access is denied. This is what I see in the setupapi.log text file:
Code: #E008 Setting registry value HKLMSYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesssdpsrv\DependOnService#E033 Error 5: Access is denied.#E065 Parsing AddReg section [Product.Add.Reg]......................
I have a Dell Optiplex GX270 with Windows XP Professional SP2.In the past,I've installed device drivers for scanners, external DVD drives,modems, software, etc. I'm currently having trouble installing a device driver for an 802.11g PCI card.The hardware is found by the "Found New Hardware Wizard", but fails to install with "Error 5: Access is denied" the setupapi log shows that it couldn't properly write to the registry. My account has Administrator privileges. I've tried to completely uninstall and reinstall the driver, and the same fault occurs. Obviously, every time the machine boots, the same problem cycles through again.I've been trying to resolve this with the vendor, who is probably just as confused as me, because it looks to be an issue with the OS.
I finally decided to install the service pack 2. During the install I keep getting messages of the form: Service pack 2 could not back up registry key XXXXX to file c:windows$NtServicePackUninstall$ eg00013: Access is denied. Anyone knows what the problem might be? I located the directory and it does get removed when I cancel the update. I'm running as an administrator.

When I try to copy the file c_437.nls from windows boot cd to windows system 32 directory to overwrite the file.When I try this i get access denied.

I used the windows knowledge base for help http://support.microsoft.com/kb/873148 I do what they say but I get to the point Where i reset the permission for Hkey_classes_rootDxDiagprovider But it gives me an error "You do not have permission to view the current permission settings for DxDiag.DxDiagprovider, but you can make permission changes." After that it comes to the permission editor but i am unable to make changes
