Bill , (and MM)
I just finished loading P3D and all went well , without errors . Just to clarify there are two times (according to installation instructions) to "Run As Administrator" . Right click on Setup.exe during initial installation and right click again on the Prepar3D.exe (inside Prepar3D folder). I believe instructions were specific that both(setup and Prepar3D.exe's) had to be "Ran As Administrator" or these type of errors would occur .
oooooooooooooooooo...... yep.. I remember this. When I was running my installer for Build 1.4, I realized I didnt start the Installer with 'run as Administrator and quickly killed the installation, deleted stuff, and restarted.
That my be why I have no issues.
MudMarine, did you run the 'installer' as Administrator? If not, uninstall and do that now.
