Hello,
I'm currently failing on the first step of programming in LabVIEW.
I'm trying to install LabVIEW 2013 on my Win7 PC. The installer is getting full admin privileges, but is not able to write in system32. It doesn't matter if I try to install the 32-bit or the 64-bit version. When the first ddl is to be installed a window pops up asking me to verify if I have access to system32. And without all the dlls and stuff LabVIEW is obviously not able to run.
As far I tried only a restart, a rigt-click ->run as admin and a new admin user. No progress.
I think this is a windows problem and no error in the installer but maybe somebody here is able to help me out.
Thanks and greetings from Berlin

Hello Eric,
mmm looks like a Windows privileges problem. But I hope you can start programming LabVIEW soon!
Can you log on to windows 7 as an administrator or as an account with administrator privileges and try it from there?
Furhermore:
Can other setups can access the system32 folder and have writing privileges there? This way you could pinpoint if it is a general Windows problem or LabVIEW related?!
What kind of errors do you get, if the LabVIEW setup fails. Can you make screenshots (also for future reference) of every unique error?
