downloading adobe

How do I "change the write privileges" on a destination file that I am trying
to download adobe illustrator into?
I keep getting an error message that tells me that I need to change the
write privileges of the destination folder.

Re: downloading adobe

You can right click the install file and select "Run As Administrator". That
should allow the program admin priveldges which will allow write privedges.

Re: downloading adobe


I cannot do that as a right click only brings a "ding", no other
options............
Any other thoughts?
Now, a go to assist download manager is involved and clicking "launch" only
produces another box asking me to run or cancel, and clicking on run produces
no result at all.
