Cannot install some programs

Original title: I can not install some programs... why?

Sometimes, when I try to install a program, an error message that says:

Windows cannot find 'C:\users\name\program.exe '.

Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again.

Appears and I can not install it... I searched the web but I couldn't find any information about it and I really need to install these programs...

PD: the error occurs whenever I try to install Firefox, it has happened with other configurations too, but I don't remember their names right now.

Hello

1. what program are you trying to install?

2. How do you install the program?

3. are you using a CD/DVD or did you download the program?

  • Cannot install some programs-can't create the output file in the AppData\Local\Temp user account

    When I try to install a program (.exe) it works winzip Self-extractor, which attempts to create a file in the directory Users\ (myusername) \AppData\Local\Temp\setup.exe

    I just installed windows 7 and had to happen one or two times before that, I think, but I re-uploaded the file and I tried again and it ended up working. Now when I try to install this program (Hava), he says that it is unable to create the output file.

    When I try to go to this place it doesn't even have the AppData folder I have to first create this path or is it a problem with the program? Any help is appreciated. Touch Pro

    Well, that's possible. As WinZip SFX has a small option to overwrite without confirmation box.

    You can move forward with delete the file setup.exe from the Temp folder in the sound is no longer used by any program (where its in the Temp folder)

    You can also try now is, since its opening a WinZIP Self Extracting Archive, you can try manually, and manually specify where to extract the files before you click ok.

    Once you do this, just run setup.exe from the specified location.

  • Cannot install any program or make any change on my standard account

    Hello

    So I recently reinstalled my Windows, the installation was not made by me. This person created one account we'll call user for simplicity, giving him Admin privileges.

    When I noticed it, I created another Admin account and demoted user a standard account. But now, when I tried to install any program, I have some sort of error: "unable to write to the file...". ", I also tried to delete a random file/shortcut and got some kind of error saying that the system is allowed to do this.

    Is there a way to fix this?

    I had rather not my experience of user account with administrative privileges for obvious reason. What I want is just having the system queries the user the Admin password when you install a program, at least, to have access to what is in the directory of the user.

    Thank you for reading this and help me

    1. right click on the Start button and select (Admin) command prompt.

    2. on the command line type: net user administrator / Active: Yes and press enter on your keyboard.

    This will allow your construction in the administrator account. Restart your computer and log in with the administrator account. Once you are in the Build in Administrator account, you can change the type of original Standard user to administrator account administrator and save it.

    Once you have made the changes successfully, the Build in administrator to disable the account by following the steps below:

    1. right click on the Start button and select (admin) command prompt.

    2. on the command line type: net user administrator / Active: no and press enter on your keyboard.

    This will disable the build in the administrator account. Restart and log in with your user account.

  • Cannot run some programs after system restore to remove the virus

    Hello

    Toshiba my duaghter had a nasty virus that pretends to be an antivirus software product, which sneaked in, between the time his default service Norton has expired and I had the time to install Trend.

    Can not remove it using trend, so on the advice of a friend, decided to make a windows system restore to a point before the infection. It worked successfully and the virus has disappeared, but now she can't run some programs, I tried to reinstall Trend, but fails because he says you must first uninstall Norton. But I can't run Norton, or uninstall, and certain folders on C: are no longer accessible.

    I have to do a full restore of the Toshiba System (IE back tofactory settings? This seems a drastic measure, but the issue is beyond my meager knowledge of PC.

    Thank you

    Graeme

    Hey Buddy,

    Hmm... This announcement is a bit confusing... Maybe the programs you want to say were installed after the system restore point, who knows?

    In my opinion you must reset the laptop configuration that you have already written. This will restore the pre-installed Windows version where everything is working correctly and that all the drivers and tools are installed.

    Therefore, you only need the Toshiba Recovery disk and boot from it. This will restore the factory settings.

    Check this box!

  • XP administrator cannot install new programs

    When I try to install a program I get an error

    "You must be logged in as an administrator to install this program."

    I am the only user of XP Home and am registered as an administrator of the computer. I used system restore to go back to a time when this error does not appear, but after the restoration of the system, I got the same error message. I created a new account with administrative privileges with the same error. SafeMode worked OK. I used regedit to verify permissions, and they indicate that I have administrator privileges.

    I ran SFC and tested the equipment without any problem. I finally realized I had saved the registry with ERDN every day so I went back at the same time (more than four weeks ago) where the problem has not produced and found that the problem started after I had installed and then uninstalled Comodo firewall but had never removed from my computer. I used Revo uninstaller uninstall, restarted the computer and the problem disappeared.

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Hi MarvReinke

     

    1. you are the administrator of the computer?
    2 do you have standard user permissions to install programs?

    It seems that this administrator has blocked installation of programs on the computer. (UAC) user account controls have been set accordingly. If you are the computer administrator, you can try to connect as an administrator and see if you can install the programs correctly. You can also try to change UAC settings to solve the problem.
