Created Nov 03, 2013 by Bitbucket Importer@bitbucket_importerOwner

Installer has insufficient privileges for C:\Program Files, in spite of UAC.

Created originally on Bitbucket by maphew (Matt Wilkie)

I got the following permissions error on Win7 sp1 x64 when installing from tortoisehg-2.9.2-hg-2.7.2-x64.msi. This happens in spite of answering "Yes" to the initial user elevation prompt near the beginning.

insufficient privs error

Installing worked on the 4rth attempt, after rebooting Windows.

I was upgrading from previous version. My guess is that the folder was in use by the old version and the actual error is along the lines of "folder/files are in locked or in use" instead of "insufficient privileges".

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
