I am trying to upgrade certain software products. When attempting the
upgrade I receive the following: "Error 1321: Insufficient privileges to
modify the file." I am the only user on my computer (standalone) and have
full admin rights. I am running WinXP with SP2. Any suggestions? Thanks in
advance for any help.



try copying the files to a folder not within a profile and see if that
helps...

you may want to create a folder such as C:\shared (for example)
