Problem installing software user with admin rights
Ok, I have an issue installing "some" software as my main user. I couldn't install symantec 12 as my user with admin rights, the error was verify the folder exists or it corrupted. But it did install in "administrator" account. Also, facebook messanger and video will not install I get an error 1622, but it will install as "administrator". Since I had other issues with OS, sfc /scannow couldnt fix problems. I formated and reinstalled windows 7...the problem still persists...what gives?

facebook messenger and facebook video. as I said they will install in "administrator" account, just not my admin user, norton sep 12 wouldnt install under admin user but it did install as "administrator". fb messenger and video need to be installed for each account on the computer. I have a feeling google earth wont install under the admin user either, because I had this issue before, thats the main reason why I did a nuke and pave . --edit, just tried google earth install in admin user...no go. it did install in "administrator" btw I have tried runas administrator in the admin user account, same issue.

Hi, You may also try to run the installer under Vista Compatiblity Mode for a test. Furthermore, please see the similar thread below. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/w7itprosecurity/thread/1b998722-ca5e-4732-b20e-15d42df2e038Juke Chou TechNet Community Support
