  2. Fix "insufficient privileges to access this directory"

    Hi!

    Try the following:

    Step 1:

    Manually change permissions to Full Control for the SYSTEM and Everyone groups for the folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users.

    On your keyboard, press Windows + R to open the Run window.

    In the Open field, enter the path C:\ProgramData\COMMON FILES\ and click OK. A window opens and displays the folder contents.

    In the Folder window, click Organize then choose Properties.

    Windows 10: Select Properties on the top ribbon of folder window.

    In the Properties window, go to the Security tab.

    Click the Advanced button.

    Click the Edit button.

    Scroll down the list of Permission entries and double-click the SYSTEM user.

    Select the checkbox for the Full Control row in the Allow column and click OK.

    Repeat steps a to h with the Everyone group (if it exists).

    Check the checkbox labeled Replace all existing inheritable permissions on all descendants with inheritable permissions from this object.

    Click OK in both the Advanced Security Settings window and again in the COMMON FILES Properties window.

    Step 2:

    On your keyboard, press Windows + R to open the Run window.

    Copy and paste RunDll32.exe shell32.dll,Options_RunDLL 0 and press Enter.

    On the View tab, scroll to the bottom of the Advanced Settings list.

    Clear the Use simple file sharing (recommended) checkbox.

    Select OK and proceed with your program installation

    Insufficient Privileges to Install iTunes in Windows 10

    When I try to (re)install iTunes I get "installer has insufficient privileges to access C:\Program Files\iTunes. The installation cannot continue. Logon as admin or contact system admin." I am logged in as the Admin. This error occurs when the install gets
    to the step of "creating folders..." I tried to outsmart it by thinking I could either rename or remove the iTunes folder (while logged in as Admin) in C:\Program Files\ but I cannot do that because "Location is not available. Access is denied C:\Program Files\iTunes"

    HELP!
