How do I fix - Error1321:The Installer has insufficient privileges to modify the file C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader11.0\Readerwow_helper.exe.

I am trying to download the free Adobe Reader and I get the message Error1321:The Installer has insufficient privileges to modify the file C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader11.0\Readerwow_helper.exe. I do not know how to fix this.

Hi Koncar,
Kindly try the steps mentioned below.
1) Download the Adobe Reader.msi  from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/11.x/11.0.00/en_US/
2) Run the .MSI for Reader and when you get the error click on Retry and installation would go trough.
Thanks,

  • Trying to install iTunes 10.7 fails - "The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\common\files\apple\MobileDeviceSupport\Sync Services\....\Windows

    I am trying to install iTunes 10.7 and keep getting this error message (I am running Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit):
    "The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\common\files\apple\MobileDeviceSupport\Sync Services\....\Windows"
    There seem to be other threads that deal with other permission errors, those fixes did not work for this.
    Thanks

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • I keep getting an error. Error 1321. The installer has insufficient privileges to modify the file

    I have Adobe Acrobat 10.0. I keep getting an error. Error 1321. The installer has insufficient privileges to modify the file C:\Programs Files\Adobe\Acrobat10.0\Acrobat\rt3d.dll
    How do I fix this issue?

    This happened after a forced update. This copy of Adobe has been running fine on the laptop for about a year and a half now all the sudden I am getting this error. Is the only fix to uninstall and reinstall?

    Hello PamelaFox14,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you need to log in as the administrator to update the iTunes application properly.
    Take a look at this article named:
    Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926
    This section in particular:
    1. Make sure you have administrator account access
    To install iTunes or QuickTime software, you need to be logged in as an administrator on the computer. If you're not sure if you have administrator account access, you may find this Microsoft article helpful:

    Otherwise, refer to the Help documentation from Microsoft, contact your IT department, or visitsupport.microsoft.com for more information.

  • Error 1321.  The Installer has insufficient privileges to modify the file c:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Resource\Font\MinionPro-It.otf.

    I am trying to update and am getting this error message.  Error 1321.  The Installer has insufficient privileges to modify the file c:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Resource\Font\MinionPro-It.otf.  I am the systems administrator so I am at a bit of a loss.

    You need to log in as the administrator (seems like you are) and may need to disable anti-virus. You might want to copy the otf file and then uninstall that font, trying again.

  • Error 1303. The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat. The installation cannot continue. Log on as an administrator or contact your system administrator.

    This is a desktop computer with Windows 8. Any help is appreciated.

    Well, did you log in as the administrator. Win 8.1 may also have an disabled Administrator account like Win 7 that you may have to activate, but in most cases it is not necessary. You should disable anti-virus during the install. From you login (as long as you are an administrator) you may be able to right click on the install file and say run as administrator.
