Installer Has Insufficient Privileges To Modify This File
Apr 19, 2010
I am getting the above error when I attempt to run setup.exe as a non-administrator on Windows XP (sp3). This is for an application I created, and I would like to know what permissions the users need to install the application and updates. I am trying to understand the security issues when installing a vb.net desktop application, the .NET framework, and other resources such as the visual studio crystal reports engine. Any good resource which explains how this works for different operating systems and privilege levels?

One of the client requirements is that the server generate files and store them on a special folder. This files created can not be modified by users or deleted.So the only way I thought is to generate this files with elevated privileges so a normal user can't delete or modify them.But the question is how can I generate a file with this privileges that normal users can interact with this files... only download from server.I use this code to generate the file... But I don't know how to configure it for elevated privileges.This is the button which generate the file and allow to download it:
Protected Sub ibtGenerar_OnClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As ImageClickEventArgs)

In a windows forms application I am attempting to read a file from a share into a filestream.I then start impersonating and write the stream to another share that only my impersonation account has access to.This works fine for small files. But if I attempt this on a 90 meg file I recieve a "Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service" error on the following line:
System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes(myLocation,MyByteArray)
Full Example:
Dim ImageData As Byte() = Nothing
Dim fsAttachment As IO.FileStream = Nothing[code].....

I'm currently developing an application for a POS Terminal using VB.net. Our project is approaching the last stage of development and I've been tasked to create 2 installers. 1 for Initial Installation, and the other for upgrade installation.
The project is composed of several elements. These are:
1. The application executable
2. Common DLLs that we developed
3. some resources (.resx and XML)
The requirement for the upgrade installer is that only those files with modification should be installed. (i.e. if only the xml or resx files are modified those are the only items that will be reinstalled, since the size of the upgrade installer is a consideration so we cannot reinstall everything).
I'm using Visual Studio 2005 for my deployment project but I'm a bit confused about how to set the properties of each file in such a way that during the upgrade, only the files that were modified would be updated and the rest of the files will not be removed since I'm setting RemovePreviousVersion property to True. I have a hunch that I need to do something with the custom action but I haven't been able to figure it out. The upgrade installer setup is almost the same as the initial installer except that all files are excluded.I tried to acquire a copy of Phil Wilson's book (The definitive guide to Windows Installer) but its not available in our local bookstore and it would take too long to order it.
Basically while tinkering with the settings/properties there are instances where the dll was not updated and there are also times when the application exe was removed.
I already verified that the Product code is the same for both installers and that I'm sure that the version number is being incremented for each upgrade.
If I will be redoing both installers from scratch, how should I go about it?
I'm also confused about the Condition property and the transitive property.

I have a MS Visual Studio .NET project created. I also went through the basic steps to add a setup project which created both an .MSI and a setup.exe file under the "Release" folder within the Debug folder. When I ran the setup.exe it installed the website on my http:localhost/Program/default.aspx which is fine and all..
My only problem is that the website does not have some of the customized icons that should be displayed, some of the other files are also missing such as "filename.txt" found in the main directory of my program used for specific calculations. I guess my two questions are:How do I add "All" the files inside my project to the .MSI?? The Website works fine, but its missing some files.
My second question, what if I "Remove" the program? Will it delete all directories, even files manually added to some folders AFTER the installation? For example: Lets say that my website contains a folder called "Data" which gathers data for specific purposes. The "Data" folder is often changed to replace outdated "Data", so when I need to make an update to the program the "Data" should not be removed, my 'client' should be able to just Add/Remove the program to update the program but all the other files should remain unchanged.

I've read about revising the File Version (and Assembly Version) to ensure that an updated file does replace an older/previous file when a WI update installation is carried out, but I don't understand the four-part construction of the File Version ... and my re-versioned files sometimes refuse to transfer to the target computer.
For example, a .exe I have recently updated had it's File Version set to 1.0.0.0 (it is resident now in my Program Files (x86)/MyApplication folder) and File Date 23/03/2012, but even now with the File Version set to 2.0.0.10 and a File Date of 24/03/2012 when I use WI to install the new program over the original the 1.0.0.0 file remains in place and the new 2.0.0.10 file does not get installed instead.

I have created a script that opens up an .msi with a transform file. To make changes to the transform file, I have created a temporary .msi file. Once the changes have been made to the file, I want to delete the temporary .msi, but I am unable to as I get an error that the file is in use by another process. That process is the VB .exe itself. I need to be able to release the handle on this file so that I am able to delete it.
I have tried this by using both the 'ReleasecomObject' using try/catch and through using 'FinalReleaseComObject'. I do not get errors when running this in the script, but it still won't allow me to delete the file.

I have (with help from you) got 'full' control of Canon image capture and processing with feature recognition, and USB cam capture including frame modification on the fly. I now want to read an avi file and modify it on the run. I have found several C# and C++ routines as a good basis, (Especially the steganography example) if only I could successfully convert them. Unless I understand what I am doing wrong I don't stand a chance. So - start with the absolute basic Open/Close avi - This fails - Protected

I can hardly think about streams til I can open a file, but when it is functional to the access to frames I'll submit a final copy for othersto use

I have a CSV file with many rows in which I need to update/replace column four's value using VB.NET. There are no headers on the columns so the loop can start on row one.
infile.csv

After much googling, there are lots of examples on how to read and write CSV files, but none quite what is needed. I know there are multiple ways to accomplish this task, but a requirement is that it's done with VB.NET.tFinal code ported from Marco's C# answerPrivate Sub CSVmod(ByVal strFileName As String, ByVal newFileName As String)
Dim strLines As String() = File.ReadAllLines(strFileName)
Dim strList As New List(Of String)

My Application (Vb.net, Access 2003/2007) is to scan Access Database files for activex controls and to generate report accordingly.Problem:
Getting an error like:"Insufficient memory to continue the execution of the program."
The above error occurs while scanning for older version of Access files like prior to office 2000.
And the line of code where I get this is as follows:
Dim oForm As Access.Form Dim oAccess as Access.Application oForm = oAccess.Forms(objForms.Name)
But it opens the file and form as well.
Whether it is possible to read the file (Access Forms and Reports) or not?

I am processing a local message queue and every now and then getting an "Insufficient resources to perform operation" error message when there is over 2GB RAM free.The queue is very small (often only a couple of items (if that) and never exceeds 50 items), with the items themselves being just a very basic class that consists of a filename (as a string), two integers, two booleans and one enum (i.e. very little actual data)In order to check the size of the message queue, I have a timer that ticks every 5 seconds, and when it does calls the following code:

I have an application using Visual Basic 2010 Express. Basically I load an XML file into a datagrid and then wish to modify it. Now the following code works fine:
Private Sub Modify_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Modify.Click
Dim da As New XmlDataDocument
da.Load(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop) & "/events.xml")
Dim path1 As String = "/calendar/event/title[text()='" & DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells(0).Value.ToString & "']"
Dim path2 As String = "/calendar/event/text[text()='" & DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells(1).Value.ToString & "']"
[Code] .....
Now the modify button does what it is intended to do as far as load the "title" and the "text" elements into the text boxes. However I want to load the other attributes into the text box. I.E. date, timeStart, timeFinish etc. Also, the just of this is to be able to modify an xml file without going into the xml file using a text editor.

I have written a program in Visual Basic 10 and all is well. I have published it and have been burning the result to a cd and installed it on various computers, however it is the click once app, which has been fine till now. What I need to do now is to have the program install the .exe file and associated files (non click once app) to a specific drive on a computer or network computer. I have searched the net for instructions on how to initiate the windows installer and have failed. is there a program that you can select the source files then point to the installation folder tell it to go and an installation package gets made that I can burn to disk.
