I tried all the most of the solutions are there on google and nothing works. Does anyone have a solution that could really work? SOS!

* original title - Hi, I'm looking to upgrade windows vista to windows 7 on a toshiba satellite L505D. When I click on 'Install now' I get this message "WINDOWS WAS UNABLE TO CREATE REQUIRED INSTALLATION FOLDER-ERROR CODE 0x8007000D'... _ *"

Hello

·        How do you try to upgrade windows 7?

This error is an access denied error which is caused by programs such as CD/DVD burning software and security software. I suggest you to uninstall the security software and burning software that is installed on the system and check if you are able to upgrade the system. In addition to this, I suggest you install and run Windows 7 upgrade advisor on the system and check. See the article mentioned below.

Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/UpgradeAdvisor

and the given below link gives the system requirements for Windows 7.

Windows 7 system requirements

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/system-requirements

Note: Install the security software on the system once you have done the upgrade of the system.

Thanks and regards.

  • Windows could not create an installation folder. Error code: 0x80070005

    I bought Windows 7 Ultimate and tried to install it.  I hit "custom" install because I wanted to start over completely and got this error message.

    Try these suggestions:

    Error 0 x 80070005 occurs if the upgrade doesn't have permission to the folder writecertain. Try the following steps:

    Reset permissions

    ============

    1 if please download the subinacl.msi from the following link and save the patch to installation on the desktop:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=e8ba3e56-d8fe-4A91-93Cf-ed6985e3927b&displaylang=en#AffinityDownloads

    2. go to your desktop and double-click on the downloaded file.

    3. Please select the C:\Windows\System32 folder as the Destination folder during installation. Later, we will use this tool to reset the permissions on the current computer settings.

    4. click on the button 'Start' in the 'Search' bar type: "Notepad" (without the quotes) and press ENTER.

    5. copy the following commands, and then paste them into the opened Notepad window:

    off @echo

    Subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Grant = administrators = f

    Subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Grant = administrators = f

    Subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/Grant = administrators = f

    Subinacl % lecteur_systeme % /subdirectories / Grant = administrators = f

    Subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Grant = system = f

    Subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Grant = system = f

    Subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/Grant = system = f

    Subinacl % lecteur_systeme % /subdirectories / Grant = system = f

    @Echo =========================

    Completed @Echo.

    @Echo =========================

    @pause

    6. After you paste the above commands, please close the Notepad window. Choose "Save" when you are prompted to save the file. Type "reset.bat" as the file name and choose "Desktop" in the Panel on the left as the save location.

    7. refer to the desktop and right click the reset.bat file, then choose "Run as Administrator".

    8. you will see a window of type BACK treatment.

    NOTE: It may take several minutes, please be patient. When it is finished, you will be prompted with the message: "finished, press any key to continue."

    If the same thing happens, move to the next step.

    Run the upgrade by using the built-in Administrator

    ================================

    1. click the button start-> all programs-> Accessories.

    2. right click on command prompt and select "run as Administrator".

    3. click on continue when user account control window appears.

    4 copy the following command and press ENTER:

    NET user administrator / Active: Yes

    5 restart the computer and then log on the computer of this administrator account.

    6. run the upgrade to windows 7.

    Error code 0 x 80070005 usually indicates that you don't have enough privileges or the operation is blocked. I know, some programs (Boot Camp on a Mac PC, etc.) is not compatible with Windows 7, if you have installed these programs on the computer, you may not be able to perform the upgrade. You should uninstall these programs before upgrading. In addition, such a question may be related to UAC, I recommend you turn off UAC in Windows Vista, if you have installed security software, try uninstalling the security application as well.

    BTW, for your references, I found similar questions:
