Vista - not enough permission to write to a folder

My logitech webcam went wierd on me today ....meaning it got stuck in
a loop trying to update the drivers....
and I needed to remove it and reinstall.

But i ran into the same type of errors reinstalling it.

error1317. An error occured while attempting to create the directory C:
\ProgramData\logitech\QuickCam

I was on the logitech support line and basically it seems like a
windows issue of not being granted enough permission to write these
folders. they could not advise me further and suggested i contact MS
about how to resolve this.

I had installed this camera before on Home Premium but over the
weekend upgraded to Ultimate.
The camera had initially installed fine, but today on bootup it seemed
to hang trying to update.

I have UAC turned off, and am the sole user on the computer. I have
administrative rights.

I have set the permissions on the folders logitech tries to create to
ownership under my name, but it seems to make no difference. the
ProgramData folder seems to have no restrictions on it when checking
the permissions on the security tab under it's properties.


I had temporarily disabled the Panda Firewall and AV software as per
request, but have not been able to get past this.

any suggestions?

thanks

What are the permissions by other accounts on that folder have? I found in
my case where permissions on a folder by another account like the Everyone
superseded my my Admin account permissions and was blocking my rights.
