    problem may be your permissions on C:\Users\(your name)\AppData\Local/Temp. It may not be set for "Full Control" for your User or Administrator. Update the two lines to permit full control for folder, subfolder and files. Also make sure that you are installing everything as Administrator and remember to remove the read only settings from the FL and FLMM directories.

  • Thanks for the fast responses. Yeah probably write protection since i have vista.
    trying to deactivate write protection. hope it works.

  • Problem still remains :(
    i followed all the instructions on FAQ and deactived write-protection, while trying to install as admistrator.
    Any1 any clues? :/

  • Are still getting the same error as mentioned at the start? did you check that link. I ran into this similar problem and found that when i check the security tab that in my case, I had to provide the correct access in a couple of instances. once that was taken care of, I had no problems with install. that error that you provided is common to other applications as well and all have the same resolution.

  • Installer is running now.
    so weird...can only install when my comodo security suite is active..otherwise it still wont find plug-ins directory.
    hopefully it will run smoothly now. crashed the first 2 times, but all the good things are 3! no problems so far after 15 mins.
    thanks for your effords guys! :)
    hope to see you in space soon!
