RodTod Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 I've had a lot of problems with P3D v3 and had to reinstall clean. This is nothing new as I have had to do this before. I had the A2A Cub running great for years in P3D. Today I tried to re install it and got a message I have never seen before. I attached a picture. It is telling me I have to run the installer as an Admin. Well, I AM! I went to CMD and made sure. Any ideas??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okdaley Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 It appears to be a permissions thing, but the same type of exception can occur in windows when a file browser, or a notepad file, or other app is open, in the destination of a folder that you or an installer are trying to manipulate. This can be further confirmed when attempting the install a second time and having the error persist when at admin level. Consider ruling out the file browser question if this is the case - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decide to try again, do all the very same things I did yesterday....it works. Windows 10......not sure about this pushing of updates the way they do.
