Hi. I regard your message as like from an installer. Please disable User Account Control (UAC) of Windows VISTA. It corresponds from Installer of Version 8.3...

Hiroshi, Wouldn't it be better to start an elevated command prompt (right-click command prompt -> run as admin) and run the installerdirectly from the command line instead of disabling UAC? Does that not work?

Does that not work? Ahh yes.:-) ex.) runas /user:administrator "cmd.exe" However, Probably, HOME EDITION will be slightly complicated... Anyway, thanks!

This is going to become my new pet-peeve isn't it? :-) The Administrator account is disabled by default in new installs of Vista (upgrades can be different), so this method most likely won't work!! For those that require evidence, from http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsvistasecurity/archive/2006/08/27/windowsvistasecurity_.aspx "The built-in administrator account is disabled by default in Windows Vista on new installations." Or Google for "vista administrator disabled" and look at any of the hundreds of relevant hits. Regards, Dave.

Yeah:-) Probably, installer of Ver8.3 will be good.!!! BTW, Is it declared that formal support of VISTA is from Ver8.3? Regards, Hiroshi Saito

No probably about it - it's already fixed :-) > BTW, Is it declared that formal support of VISTA is from Ver8.3? Thats the intention. Regards, Dave
