edhmptn Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 My windows 7 computer has three accounts. Two regular user accounts and an administrator account. I am administrator, but use one of the user accounts for web browsing. I attempted to update CCleaner (free version) after logging on to the administrator account. Downloading was fine, but when I went to install version 5.04.5151 (64 bit) it gave me the error: "CCleaner v5.04 setuperror opening file for writing". According to your FAQs, this error says I need administrator permission. I WAS logged in AS Administrator. I gave permission for the program to make changes to my computer. It STILL gave me the error! I switched to my regular user account, and downloaded the file. I told it to run the file. I was asked for the administrator password, and entered it. the program installed with NO PROBLEMS! Is this a problem with CCleaner or Windows 7? Windows 7 Pro (64 bit) up-to-date as of April 06, 2015. ( SP-1 and ALL non-optional updates installed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
