The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory

Asked By Sharon W Leary 0 points N/A Posted on - 11/14/2013

I am an administrator, I was either asked to elevate or ran the installer “as administrator” myself, but still getting this error. I am trying to resolve this error using some online resolutions but could not fix this. I am using Windows XP Operating System so need your assistance as soon as possible. Thanks for this.

The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory

Hello there !!

Since you are running the application using the Administrative privileges but still there seems issue with the administrative credentials, isn't it ? So, this might happen that you are not properly running the application using the administrative privilege. So just follow the mentioned steps to run the application with the administrative privileges.

1. Right click on the application you want to run as an admin.

2. Select >> Run as administrator.

3. Dialog box will point you to ask permission for the admin privilege, Click >> Ok.

Your application will surely run as an admin without an issue.

First of all you need to verify whether your are using administrator or Guest Account

Secondly you need to see which Window bit is your. I mean are You using windows 7 32 bit or windows 7 64 bit.

If your window is 32 bit then you need to install tortoisessvn (32bit).
