JoMilton Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Every time I try to install version 526 on my windows 10 64bit computer it stalls halfway through installation and shows a message "Error opening files for writing", and I have to abort the installation. I don't rename or in any way alter, amend or tamper with the files. It's never happened before in any previous version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted January 20, 2017 Moderators Share Posted January 20, 2017 Is ccleaner running while you try to update? ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.
