How exactly are you launching WPKG? I assume manually from a command line? In that case, try opening CMD with the "Run as Administrator" option. To do that, find the shortcut to CMD.EXE and right-click on it. Then select Run As Administrator.
BTW, that will work with UAC turned on or off. If you have UAC turned on, "Run as administrator" will bring up the familiar prompt. If your user is not an administrative-level user, the prompt will also ask for the user name and password of a user with administrative-level privileges. Background information: in Windows 7 (and Vista), the administrator account actually is disabled and hidden. Ordinary users, even when you create it as administrator, are not actually administrators - they merely have the right to switch to the administrator account when needed.

I've gone to install WPKG onto a Win7 Pro 32-bit laptop as an administrative level user, but the install cancels and tells me I must have administrative priviledges to install the application? I have UAC turned off, and the user is most definitely an admin level user, am I missing something here? Chris ________________________________ View your other email accounts from your Hotmail inbox.
