The system administrator has configured the policy

I read and re-read all the responses but none of them are possible in my case, I have Vista 64 bits.

However, I found the solution. I was trying to install Quicktime when I got the message about the "Policy .......".

The solution, even though I am the Administrator of my computer, is to right-click on the file and select "Install as administrator" and that's it.

Hello! I have the same problem: I'm an administrator, and I can't install ITUNES. What should I do? Please help me. Thank you.

1. type "regedit"
2. Navigate to: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products
3. search in the subkeys for the ProductID of Alcohol
4. When you find it, delete the subkey
5. reinstall Alcohol again

a solution gentlemen and ladies

Right-click on the executable (in my case itunes.exe) then go to the compatibility tab, and at the bottom, check the box "Run this program as an administrator." For me, it works.

Good evening everyone, I think I found the solution after trying practically everything
- deleting the registry keys of the software in question
- cleaning the registry using CCleaner
- modifying the administrator settings
- modifying the user account settings

anyway, I was getting desperate and by right-clicking on my installation icon on the desktop, an option appeared that said "run as administrator." I clicked on it and perfect....!!!

there you go, hoping to help curious internet users who have the same problem!

Unable to install Norton Antivirus even though I am the administrator on this PC (which is indeed alone, with no other
PC connected, and no other administrator but me). I have this problem after reinstalling Windows XP.

Does anyone know how the "administrator" can lift this restriction???

It's cool, it works..
Thank you for your precious help..

Thank you very much ^^

Hello, nice!
I'm the administrator... I'm on a single workstation with no other profiles defined.
All the other software installs fine.
So the problem is probably elsewhere, maybe a protection somewhere that's causing the install to fail???
Thanks anyway. LC

Hello,

I have the same problem with Norton Antivirus!
I am also the administrator of my computer (isolated machine)

Any guidance would be REALLY appreciated!

Thank you in advance

Hi

You should check, by editing the rights, that Administrator is allowed to "install"

In general, you should check all the rights assigned at this level, and also see if when reinstalling, you are still recognized as an administrator.

See you later!

Hello everyone

I also have the same problem as you with Alcohol 120, but for me the issue occurred after a manual installation of Windows XP Pro SP2 using an unattended setup. However, the problem only arises with Alcohol; all the other applications I've installed so far have not caused any issues. If anyone has any idea........

j'ai besoin de compte d'administrateur

Hello, I have the same problem but worse: there's no way to uninstall!! "the administrator" the solution please!?

A solution can be found here:

then click on "Security policy preventing the installation of software"

For this case, it's a virus; it often happens to me, a virus that prevents all antivirus installations or even the folder that can touch its location. There is a solution, Zeb-Restore_ZR_1.0.0.37, which can allow you to modify the registry and let you configure your PC.

I had a similar problem, however, when I did "run as admin" I always received the same error.

The problem was related to the registry. In the section for Windows Installer keys, there was an entry for the program I was trying to install.

I used the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility to remove my program from the list.

*** Utility available here ***

I re-ran my MSI and everything works fine.
