A few programs I've tried to installed have stopped because of a common "error" -- they either can't access c:/windows/System32 or a file in that folder.
After much searching, I discovered that the folder is marked "read only".
I have tried to change the permissions in the properties --> security section to no avail: when I click apply -- I get a message saying:
"C:\windows\system32\0409 --- access is denied"
I am the administrator.
Hope someone can help me with this.
Thank you.
