Error 1406 installing PSE 7

During the installation of PSE 7 on a Windoes XP Pro SP4 machine while logged on as an administrator I received the following error.
Error 1406. Could not write value to key
\Software\Classes\.vst\OpenWithList\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe
What does this mean and how can I correct the error? Thanks.

Win XP Pro SP4??? I thought Ms releases only service packs till SP3 for XP.
Anyways..you might want to follow the steps mentioned in the below link and then try to install PSE again. Hopefull, this should help:

Error 1406 Installing Adobe Reader 9.3.3 on Vista

Receiving an error 1406 when installing Adobe Reader 9.3.3 on a Vista PC.
EI 8
Also had issues installing Flashplayer 10.1
Eventually removed Adobe Manager and uninstalled all previous versions of Flashpayer and Acrobat (could not see that Reader was installed). Flashplayer 10.1 then installed ok but still have error 1406 with Reader 9.3.3
Any suggestions??
Thank you
Les

How do you install Adobe Reader 9.3.3? Please give details.
Are you installing it as an Administrator user?
What is the full 1406 error message?

Sims3 DVD authentification error after installing PSE 6

I have a strange problem with my MacBook Pro 15". I bought Sims3 and played it some weeks, then I bought PSE 6 for my photo editing needs. Now, the first time I wanted to start Sims 3 after installing PSE 6, the Sims 3 game starts, but when launching the city where to chose from my families, the error message occurs: "Disc-Authentification failed. Check of the Sims 3 Disc has failed, it could not be checked whether the disk is a valid disk."
Before asking the EA support, I checked updates (none), repaired access rights, checked my disc and reinstalled Sims3.
The EA Support hotline asked me to do a firmware update for my superdrive, but i don't find an available download.
Can someone help me?

Put the first disk in again, and set it to just install the DVD SP content, livetype, and motion content disks... if it fails, call Apple, as you might have a bad disk there.
But the applications themselves are already installed. What you're missing is the templates on those disks onlly.
Seems to me you can also just put the other disks in and install them one at a time.
Also, if this is an upgrade from a previous installation (FCP 5 or whatever) you really should do it as a clean install... all you need to have is your previous serial number.

Photoshop cs4 install fails on Vista with registry access error 1406

I've been trying to install Adobe Photoshop CS4 on my Vista for a couple of days now. It grinds for a minute or two then tells me "Installation of the following components has failed: Adobe Drive CS4, Adobe Photoshop CS4" when I cancel the install and click the "More Information" button, I see this:
Adobe CSI CS4
Error:
Error 1603. Error 1406.Could not write value AdobeCS4ServiceManager to key \SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
When I go into regedit, I have no problem creating a string value in the indicated key.
Here are some of the things I've tried:
1) run setup as administrator (even tho I have UAC turned off)
2) run setup in WinXP SP2 compatibility mode
3) use the Adobe Support Advisor to track down the error in their knowledge base and followed steps to apply permissions to descendents of the indicated tree
Done lots of googling plus searching of the experts-eschange knowledge base.

Choose Custom during install, deselect Version Cue, Adobe Drive and Acrobat.com. The CSI Service is related to that.

Install problems with CRXI R2 - Error 1406

I am stuck on trying to upgrade from CR XI R1 to CR XI R2.
My company has a VB6 application -- very large and will take great effort to port to .net. I have customers who are now on Windows 7 and complaining some of the reports are very slow. They run fine on Windows XP. Because of this, on the advice of SAP and this forum, I am trying to upgrade my development machine and then my customers' systems with CR XI R2, as described in the forum posts on this topic.
On my development system, I installed:
CRXI R2: http://downloads.businessobjects.com/akdlm/crystalreports/crxir2_sp4_full_bld_0-20008684.exe
and then:
Service Pack 6: http://downloads.businessobjects.com/akdlm/crystalreports/CRYSTALREPORTS06_0-20008684.EXE
I ran into the missing CrystalReports.msi problem and followed the advice on this thread: Crystal XI Release 2 attempts to install every time I open our application
After following those instructions and rebooting, I started the install. I got this error during the install:
Error 1406. Could not write value MyCube to key Products8790BF49490D7C04197D38D49322D0A4Features. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key or contact your support personnel..
After ignoring the error, I got the same error for several other features during the install.
I subsequently uninstalled all my old versions of Crystal (8.5 and 9.0 as well as the XI version and service pack 6). I then only installed the XI R2 version and things went great. But the install of service pack 6 failed again with the 1406 errors.
I am really stuck! I now have no ability to fix any of my reports on this machine and can't run my reports through the VB6 app.
Can anyone help me out?
I really appreciate any help you can give me.
Meryl

Hello Meryl
Searching the registry for the 8790BF49490D7C04197D38D49322D0A4 guid, gets you to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Features\8790BF49490D7C04197D38D49322D0A4
This is not a Crystal Reports Key. Rather it is a key used by the MS installer, thus the query is most likely best directed to Microsoft. Other than that, see the following re error 1406:

What is your operating system? Is there anything else beside the number 1406?

Failure to Install PSE 7 after gettign licensing error (Vista machine)

Hi,
I was happily using PSE 7 for a few months and then got a licensing error. In a misguided attempt to fix that problem I uninstalled PSE 7 and tried to reinstall it (using the remove program app) and now I cannot install PSE 7 on my machine. When I run the installation program for it, it gets almost all the way through installation and then suddenly the last install screen says that it was unable to install and that my system has not been altered. All you can do is press "finish" and be bummed out that you still can't use PSE7.
Any advice? I think there is probably some artifact that PSE 7 has left on the machine that needs to be deleted to make for clean install environment but darned if I can find anything. If you go to the Adobe folder in Program Files, PSE 7 does not show up anymore. (I also had to remove PSE 6 because it stopped working in all of this, as well. PSE 5 is on my system but I haven't tried to open it).
Open to any and all good suggetions. Many thanks, Deb Whitman

Deb,
This Adobe tech note explains how to manually remove all (or at least most) traces of PSE:
http://www.adobe.com/go/kb405847
Then try reinstalling. If you still get a license error, see this FAQ:

Error 1406 when Installing VPN Client

I am attempting to install a VPN client on a customers computer and getting
"Error 1406" and that it doesn't have the ability to access certain registry keys.
I am logged in as an administrator in Windows 7 64 bit.
What could be causing this problem? What are possible solutions?
Any help would be appreciated.
Ryan

Neville;
There is a limit to the number of entries in the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SharedDLLs key, at least on Win95. By removing some other entries, the problem will probably be solved.
Hope this helps.

Error 1406 and 1402 When Installing iTunes

Each time I attempt to download the new version of iTunes, it says I have an error 1406 or 1402. I have received instructions previously for this problem because this has happened before, but now they are failing to work. These are the directions I have:
For install error code 1406 & 1402:
Try the following:
Start menu -> Run. Type in "regedit" (this takes you to the Registry Editor)
Find the heading HKEYLOCALMACHINE. Click on it.
Find the heading SOFTWARE inside it. Click on it.
Find the heading Classes. Click
Find the heading .cdda. Click
Find the heading OpenWithList. Click
Right-click on "OpenWithList" folder. Select Permissions. Select Add button. Select the Advanced button. Select "Find Now" button.
The "Find Now" button should list all of the users, Select the "Everyone" user. Hit OK. This closes this dialog. Hit OK in the dialog box now on top. This closes this dialog.
On the Permissions for OpenWithList box now on top, select "allow" checkbox in the "full control" row & hit OK.
Do the exact same thing for the OpenWithProgids folder. Close regedit and try the install again.
Are there any suggestions besides these directions that could possibly help me successfully download iTunes?

Well after I do all the steps it tells me to do, I try installing again, and the exact errors come up.
hi James!
okay, we'd better check explicitly on your administrative rights in your user account. head into your user accounts control panel to see. let's also try the Installshield tips and pointers:

Verify that you have sufficient access to that key or contact your support personnel.

Thank you so much for your response, John.
Yes, i have clicked on "Ignore", however, i receve the same error message for a different address (\System\Current\Controlset\Services\DNE\Parameters) and the Error nuimber changes. It goes from 1401 to 1406.
I Keep Ignoring those error messages but i do get more than 50 of them. And after ignoring a bit more, it gives me some messag stating that "The installation could not be performed" So my only option at that time is "Abort"

Hi there!
I agree...a full start over is in order. And, for your easier reference, here is the procedure that I give out.
I suggest the following steps (insert plenty of reboots of your PC...not just restarts, but full power down reboots). Also, it is advised that you be logged into the PC on an account with full admin rights. Further, under Vista/Win7, use the "Run As Administrator" option for everything.
1) Remove your device OS update package from your PC (add/remove programs)
2) Cleanly uninstall the RIM DTM software:
KB02206 How to perform a clean uninstall of BlackBerry Desktop Software
Some have reported that there are more registry keys to remove than are discussed in that KB
Others have reported the use of a registry cleansing tool to also be helpful
3) Get a fresh download of the RIM DTM software:
https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/entry.do?code=A8BAA56554F96369AB93E4F3BB068C22
Choose the version that is newest and (if applicable) compatible with your PIM (if you are synchronizing via USB):
KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager for synchronization
4) Download (to your PC) a fresh copy of your device OS package from your carrier:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
5) Install DTM to your PC
6) Install (also to your PC), the device OS package
Hopefully that will get things going again.
Good luck and let us know!
