The Issue is the following.
Even when running as elevated user, (Run as Admin)
The user's "Modify" bit is stripped off of the access token for the %PROGRAMFILES% Path.
%PROGRAMFILES% Is owned by TRUSTED INSTALLER, Not Administrator.
Therefore the user does not have elevated status to modify files in the %Program File% directory, even if they click on the "Run as Admin"
Turning UAC completely off, prevents this token from being stripped..
So again, You can go to help & settings, and type in "Turn UAC off" and follow the prompts.. (THIS REQUIRES A REBOOT)
OR
If you like the UAC (Misery Does love company...) you may preform the following function on the SONY folder in your %Program Files% Directory.
Click on Start, and type in %PROGRAMFILES% press ENTER.
( %PROGRAMFILES(X86)% if using 64bit like me)
Right-click SONY and select Properties.
Click on the Security tab.
Click Edit
Click Add
Input your user name (Or find it using Advanced)
Click CHECK NAMES -- Puts it in the proper format.
Click Ok
You should then see your user name listed in the list, and it should be highlighted.
Check the FULL CONTROL check box, making sure there is a check in it, before you click apply .
If no errors occur when you click apply, YOUR DONE -- If errors occur, Something else is going on.. (Post Screen Shots)
I hope this helps.
