dh53 Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Today I tried to move a project to a new computer and I can't seem to install DAQFactory. The computer I want to use runs Windows 7 pro. I downloaded the latest DAQFactory installer, DAQFactoryInst_17_1.exe When I try to run it the installer splash screen comes up and I get an error "DAQFactory requires administrative privileges to install." The user account has administrator privileges on that computer. I tried to right click the installer and run as administrator but I get the same thing, splash screen then privileges error. I tried to right click, go to file properties, Compatibility, and set the file Privilege Level to "Run this program as an administrator." Same error. I moved the installer file to a directory C:\temp that is set so all users have full access to read, write, or modify. Same error. I don't really know what to look for in the log file. Near the end of the log file I see this (where xx:xx: is the timestamp): Action xx:xx:xx:LaunchConditions. Evaluating Launch Conditions Action start xx:xx:xx: LaunchConditions. DAQFactory requires administrative privileges to install MSI(c) (24:14) [XX:XX....] Product: DAQFactory -- DAQFactory requires administrative privileges to install. Action ended xx:xx:xx: LaunchConditions. Return value 3. MSI(C) (24:14) [xx:xx...] Doing action: FatalError" Any ideas why this is happening? Is there some other way to set administrator privileges? What is LaunchConditions 3 and does that tell me anything beyond the privileges error? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzeoTech Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Hmm, that is very odd. No direct ideas. Any chance I can remote into your system at some point and see? Just email us direct at support@ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
