Hello @Anonymous,

 

Please review Steps for Setting-Up Student Software it will guide you through the download, install & activation. 

 

The message is indicating a Windows User permission issue, users must have Full Control permissions (Administrator) to all files and folders in the C:\Users\USERNAME% directory and registry keys (HKEY_CURRENT_USER & HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE)

 Article explains what users need access to: Restricted user

 

This issue may be due to theWindows 10 Creators Update & Defender that is restricting access to these user folders. 

 

Follow up with us on the progress.
