AdminStudio 10 unable to extract files
Greetings all,
I've downloaded the AdminStudio10.exe this morning and have tried to install it but on both machines I've tried I get
"There is not enough space on drive c:\to extract this package"
One has 35Gb the other 96Gb any ideas?
I'm downloading again just in case.
As it was running under my standard user access token it didn't have write access to Program Files for extraction.
I've try both my user and local admin
Logged in as me with local admin rights.
But use runas to run the EXE as local admin
I'm glad you were able to work around the issue. Thanks for that update.
If you had installed the beta, the beta installation first tries to extract the files to a location such as this:
C:\Program Files\AdminStudio Setup Files\AdminStudio 10.0
If you want to install the final released version of AdminStudio on that same machine, you'll need to uninstall the beta. It is also recommended that you delete the AdminStudio 10.0 folder and its contents from the above path.
If not, it is possible that you may run into the issue that you described. When the installation tries to extract the installation files to the above location, it may have trouble overwriting the existing files.
I'd also tried another machine which did not have AS installed.
When trying to install on XP or Windows 2003 with local admin rights.
"There is not enough space on drive C:\ to extract this package"
The drive has 96GB free.
Not impressed.
