Movie Maker fails with general access denied error

Windows Movie Maker 6 in Windows Vista SP2 32 bit produces a general access denied error and does not run when an attempt is made to run by normal methods. Right click on the shortcut or icon and choosing "Run as Administrator" results in the successful launch of the program.

I went to the properties of Moviemk.exe and given full control permissions to the single user and also to the administrator, but the file still does not start by double-clicking.

Does anyone have a solution for this?

Thank you

Ron Carruthers

Hello Ron_C,

In Windows Vista and Windows 7, the number of items must be run in administrative mode. Even logged on as administrator, you are running as a standard user.

The Movie Maker 2.6 installer must be run with administrator privileges.

1. Select the language
2. click on the download button.
3. click on "Run" to start the installation.

I hope this helps.
Thank you

    To do this, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator.

    At the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:

  • WHS client backup fails with an access denied error

    I have a new laptop with Windows 8.1 on which I have installed the Windows Home Server 2011 connector and configuration backups for her. Backups fail at every attempt to return that an error prevented backup to create a snapshot of the volumes on this computer.

    The event log shows event ID 8194 by the following:

    The volume shadow copy Service error: error unexpected mark of the IVssWriterCallback interface. HR = 0 x 80070005 access is denied.

    . This is often caused by incorrect security settings in the process of the writer or the applicant.

    The service runs with the same parameters the service runs on a computer that registers with success.

  • iDRAC 7 launch Virtual Console fails with access denied error

    Hello

    whenever I try to launch the idrac video console 7, it fails with an "Access denied" error it's weird because I'm connected to the idrac as superuser. I use JDK 1.6. I tried through different browsers and I still get the same error.

    Found the same problem after an update of the Firmware to iDRAC.

    To address I created a new user account and permissions of base. Seems "Access Virtual Console" even when checked permissions do not actually post update.

  • Get the "Access denied" error when you try to play all video files in another folder on my external hard drive.

    A couple of days, I've had accidentally one of the folders slipped on my hard drive in the folder above him and was presented with the "Access denied" error messages when I tried the two a) reglisser it out & b) open it from the record she had been driven to (which was not a folder of my making that is a jibberish titled folder containing two .vdm files it contains first)

    After receiving advice of a friend, I did a restore from safe mode on the eve of the day when he moved and he did bring him back with all the files and files in the right place, but now I'm getting an access denied for each file, I try to play. Whether Real Player, Windows Media Player etc none will play.

    Just to test, I slipped a .avi file in the folder to see if he was going to play and he did it can be the folder settings, I'm just hoping that all these files are now not corrupted and unplayable as I have some 180 GB of data in this folder in more than 1000 files.

    Any help is very appreciated.
    Kind regards

  • Steam.exe(main_exception):error:Delete of steam.exe failed, Win32 Error5 "access denied."

    I get the error that is displayed in the title line when you try to install the application of steam for the game Left4Dead. Just in case where the window title does not display the full error message:

    Steam.exe(main_exception):error:Delete of steam.exe failed, Win32 Error5 "access denied."

    My system specs are as follows:

    MB: ASUS P6T DELUXE Version2

    PWR: COOLMAX 1200 Watt
    CASE: Aplus Black Aluminum ATX Full Tower
    OS: Vista Ultimate 64-bit

    I checked my system and performed the following tasks to try to resolve the problem:
    My version of Windows is up-to-date. I have no problem hardware or exceptional driver. I tried to temporarily disable my antivirus to complete the installation, this does not solve the problem. I tried to install it as a system administrator. I searched the site of Valve/steam software for a solution, none were found (http://store.steampowered.com/). I searched the database of Microsoft for a solution, none were found. I'm having no problem with other games or applications that were loaded on that computer. The problem is only with the application steam.exe and any game that requires the application of steam to the function.
    I came across the following link which has promised to solve the problem;
    http://www.bing.com/search?mkt=en-us&q=steam%20error%20Win32%20error%205
    https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=5322-QYZB-5344  
    I followed the instructions at three times, all with the same error message.
    The default program is responsible for the following: C:\Program Files (x 86) \Steam.
    I tried to load the program on different hard disks and got the same error code.
    I have triple checked all user profiles to make sure that the appropriate privileges have been set (Admin). I checked all the steam program elements to ensure that they have been set to run as a program director executed. I double checked that proper TCP/UDP ports are open for the application of the steam function. http://www.resoo.org/docs/Counterstrike/steam_ports.html
    Any help to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello Platinum,
     
    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Vista Community Forums.
     
    This error is primarily caused by a lack of permissions for the user, having the Steam.exe file attributes set to 'Read only', or by another program interferes with the installation of Steam process (if the steam client application has been updated to a version that was not included in your package of Steam, Steam will download a new copy of itself and then delete the old file Steam.exe except when another program interferes).
     
    1. check your Windows user permissions.
    Please ensure that you are logged on as administrator on the computer that you use to install Steam.
    2. check the file attributes
    3. right click on the file Steam.exe, which was created after running the Steam Installer, and then select Properties
    4 uncheck the read-only box if it is checked and hit apply before closing the window
    5. try running the Steam.exe file once more
    6. check the settings of your security software
     
    If you are running an antivirus, firewall or any product safety program that may interfere with the removal and replacement of the file Steam.exe (some security software will check information of a file whenever it is changed and block the automatic replacement of files) Please check your settings for the program and ensure that you are prompted to authorize activities that may trigger the security software.
     
    Remove spyware, Adware and virus software and try to run the installation again.
     
    In addition to the steps above, follow these steps:
    1. go in C:/Program Files/Steam /.
    2. right click on Steam.exe and go to properties.
    3. click on the Compatibility tab.
    4. check run as administrator and click OK.
    5. then I deleted StemeTemp (or something like that. the steam icon).
    6. then run Steme.exe again.

    It will be useful.

  • error: ShellExecuteEx failed: Code 5 access denied trying to uninstall a 3rd party program.

    I was using a 3rd party appointed Start Menu Pro 7.8 program & wanted to uninstall, I use CCleaner for the same purpose, but when I tried to uninstall the program I got an error: ShellExecuteEx failed: Code 5 access denied. I've never had this error before, so was not sure of the cause of it... so I would like to know the reason for the error.

    Thank you

    Run the program with admin rights:

  • Just as a reference: how to FIX the annoying 'White Screen Of Death"with Silverlight and"Access denied"error with computer management.

    Well, I just hope that someone who has met these two mistakes will find my dose. It might save a lot of pointless research on the net.

    SYMPTOMS:
    -When you try to open a Silverlight application in your browser (Firefox, Chrome, IE, etc), your browser displays only a white area. When you right click on the white area, you can click on the Silverlight properties.
    -If you try to start "Computer management" by clicking on the 'My Computer' icon and select 'Manage', you get the following error: 'access denied '.

    CAUSE:
    The following errors are usually the result of a bad environment variable. In this case the "windir" environment variable does not work correctly. You can try running the management of the computer to start > run and entering:
    %windir%\system32\mmc.exe/s %windir%\system32\compmgmt.msc

    Notice the between the characters of percentage windir environment variable. If you run the above code, you will probably get an error saying that MMC cannot open the file. Look closely at the path, it's back!
    You will probably find any % somewhere.

    What actually happened here is the variable windir made reference to another variable: systemroot
    Why this creates problems, I'm not sure. Also, I don't understand what made then variable windir change.

    SOLUTION:
    -From your desktop or Explorer: right-click on "My computer" and select "Properties".
    -Click on the "Advanced" tab and then click "Environment Variables".

    http://pcauthorities.com/images/advanced-system-properties-XP.jpg

    -Did the windir variable. Together to "C:\Windows" do not think that it is already set to "C:\Windows", because windows then tells you. Double-click it to know for sure.

    -See, I told you! Change this to "C:\Windows".

  • Error creating registry key, RegCreateKeyEx failed; Code 5 access denied

    Just as the title says. I encounter and error where a program is unable to create a registry key. Error 5, access denied. I tried as admin and the problem still persists. I tried to run the registry editor and access, but still the problem persists.

    For the complete error message:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/MediaProperties/PrivateProperties/Joystick/OEM/V8/AXES/0ID_8888 & PID_030

    RegCreateKeyEx failed; Code 5 access denied

    I can retry, ignore, stop the program. I run Windows 7. It is a big problem for me because this PC is also to play games, can't really do this without my will.

    I solved the problem some time ago btu don't remember how. I think trying to let the program us firewall or try to disable all firewall and installed, I'm pretty sure something along these lines has helped.
