Windows Vista Error Message

[DaleBreedlove]

I am trying to install Windows Office Professional on my new computer which has Windows Vista Home Premium 64 Bit SP1 operating system. I keep getting "Error executing file" E:\Office11-Disk 1-Professional\SETUP.EXE
The requested operation requires elevation. Please help, Thanks! Zelmoidal

Hello Zelmoidal, and welcome to Vista Forums.

See if right clicking on the setup.exe file of Office, and clicking on Run as administrator may allow it to install properly afterwards without the error.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

I'm not able to click on the file you mentioned. I get the error message immediately after selecting "Install Microsoft Office professional Edition 2003"

Are you installing this while logged on to a administrator or standard account? It may not let you if you are doing it from a standard account.

See if you can right click on the DVD drive icon and click on Open from within the Computer (Start Menu) window to see the files on the DVD, then try to right click on the setup.exe file of Office and clicking on Run as administrator.
