Error 1926

[Henry]

Hi,

I'm trying to add access 2000 to an office 2000 Pro setup
on a laptop and am getting the following message:

Error 1926. Could not set file security for
file 'C:\Config.Msi\'. Error: 5. Verify that you have
sufficient privileges to modify the security permissions
for this file.

I have run the install as both the local or domain admin
(who have full control rights to the drive).

This error occurs if I attempt an update, repair, remove
or add an service pack to the office 2000 professional
installation.

Unfortunately, there are no references to this in the
knowledge base - Just two references - one for .NET and
the other for Services for UNIX 3 - neither of which are
loaded on this laptop.

Any help would be appreciated. I really don't think fdisk
is an option although it may be the only way.

Thanks in Advance,

Henry

I had this problem before. I ended up resetting the rights
to the root of C drive. For some reason they had become
corrupt, even though there were no other indications.

Hope this helps.... Burt
