Bought the W7 via website/offer and as such its a digital copy.
When downloaded it looks like this on the desktop or wherever you downloaded it:
Running the .exe should usually extract a folder with the following contents:
However, when I try this, I get this message at 99% completion:
Ive gotten this regardless of .exe and related file placement, i.e. folders, desktop etc. And Ive redownloaded it to rule out a bad file download.
Ive also made sure to change the folder properties, unchecking the read-only option.
After i apply and ok the dialog box - it ignores me and reverts back to read-only. I have admin rights also.
Any ideas what Im doing wrong? Cos, obviously, im doing something wrong.
