How verify access to directory?

ingramgill

Installing Q Deluxe, I get: "Error writing to C/Programfiles/Quicken/qw.exe. Verify that you have access to that directory."
How do I do that? The installation program wiped out my prior version (2013) and I can't re-install it either.

Hi @ingramgill,

That error message is not being generated by Quicken, it is coming from your computer operating system.  Here are the steps that you should take:

Solution:

1. Sign in as Administrator.
2. Go to C:\Program Files.
3. Right-click on Autodesk folder and click Properties.
4. Go to Security tab.
5. Click Edit... to change permissions.
6. In the new dialog box, click Administrators and then check the box Full Control below. Then do the same for Users.
7. Click Apply and OK to apply changes.

Let us know how his goes.
