How can I fix error 1326 install Quicken 2013 in Windows 8

I'm running Windows 8 and I get the following error message (verbatim) when I try to install Quicken 2013 (or re-install Quicken 2012)

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________

Quicken Failed to install - Exit Code: 1326

The reason for this error:

1326.error error file security: C:\ProgramData\Intuit\ GetLastError: 5

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________

Intuit tip of the finger firmly at Microsoft and said that it is a registry error.

It is aggravating me beyond words. The suggestions that I find are to reinstall Windows Installer (Windows 7 solution) or unsubscribes and re-0register the installer, which does not work either.

If anyone has any suggestions or better yet, solutions! I would be very grateful. Currently, I can not install any version of Quicken because this error occurs every time now.

Thanks in advance!

Using Windows 7, I spent hours looking for the solution to this question - Intuit, Microsoft and all that I was able to Google.  I came across this answer on the Site from the TurboTax software, and in fact, it worked for me.  I should note that, instead of simply refer 2 folders, I Redid the security on what whether in files of program or lists lists common target Intuit or Quicken.  Maybe it will work for win 8 also.
