[QUOTE="fforde, post: 965202, member: 52082"] With the latest release of Moving Pictures we are trialing an MPEI. The current implementation is just a wrapper around our existing NSIS installer. I am using the standard "launch application" action in the MPEI installer. I would like to get rid of this and implement it 100% in MPEI but due to time constraints we went with this solution for now. Here is the problem, everything works perfectly fine if you double-click that mpe1 file and run the installer that way. But I have just realized that if you download and launch the installer from the MPEI tool itself, the NSIS installer is not able to copy files to the MediaPortal directory. My assumption is that when run this way, the installer does not have the proper permissions to write to C:\Program Files\. Has anyone run into this problem before? Is there a known work around?
