Failed to install ms sql 2012, it shows 1406 Could not write value to key \SOFTWARE. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel. error

Hi friends,
i have tried to install ms sql 2012 on windows 8.1 pro 64 bit  but it got failed due to the following error 1406 Could not write value  to key \SOFTWARE.   Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.. 
 I had run the set up file as administrator. I have ony one user account on my laptop. I have seen in the regestry about permission of user. There is full control to the user. I have also tried the solution related to this issue that are available in
this forum and other.
I have also attache the detail.txt log file here
So i am heartily requesting you guys if you have the solution then please post your solution as soon as possible. 
Thanks in  advance!!!

Looks like this is a permission issue with account you logged in in your operating system or account if any you chooses to run you SQL Server installation . Or for executing setup file try using run as administrator.

    Could not open key:
    UNKNOWN\Components\DA42BC83BF25F5BDOAF18C3B9B1A1EE8\3e43b73803c7c394f8a6b 2f0402e19c2. Verify that you have
    sufficient access to that key. or contact your support personnel.
    After following instructions for three different solutions that did NOT work; I found the solution that did work
    on the support site for Syamntec.
    Readers - Please, you must be VERY familiar with pc jargon and windows vernacular to accomplish the reset
    of ALL the permissions in your registry.
    Follow the ditrections below and pay attention to the notes for those running 64bit Win7.
    Step one, back up the registry.
    Step two, go to the MS KB: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e8ba3e56-d8fe-4a91-93cf -ed6985e3927b&displaylang=en and download the file that installs subinacl. It is an MSI file, and will do a quick install of a few Microsoft files.  Hint: Look in the folder listed below, "subinacle.exe" may already be there.
    Step three, create a batch file (subinacle.bat) with the following commands:  (Use Notepad - copy & paste, not the red stuff)
    cd /d "Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools" (only for 32bit/x86 machines)
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    subinacl /subdirectories %windir%\*.* /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
    secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\inf\defltbase.inf /db defltbase.sdb /verbose
    For 64bit machines substitute for first line of bat file:
                        cd /d "c:\program files (x86)\windows resource kits\tools"
    Step four, run the batch file. Let it run until the Command Prompt screen closes, may take 30 minutes or more.
    Step five, reboot the machine and run the install again.
    Ladies and Gentlemen; this worked for me and allowed immediate installation of two application packages I had been trying for three months!  (Including ITunes 10.5)

  • Hi, i have problem when installing itune. it said:  Could not open key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE32\SOFTWARE|Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel. please help me!

    For "Could not open key/write value" errors when reinstalling try b noir's user tip:
    "Could not open key: UNKNOWN\Components\[LongStringOfLettersAndNumbers]\
    [LongStringOfLettersAndNumbers]" error messages when installing iTunes for Windows.
    The technique can be applied to the branch of the registry mentioned in the error message.
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • Problems installing Itunes error message - Hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run - Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel

    Can anyone help? I have been trying to install the new version of Itunes for ages my new iphone wont activate on the old version!! Keep getting the same error message -  Hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run - Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
    Please Help!!!!!

    That particular key can sometimes be hit by malware, liam, so just to be on the safe side I think we should try a malware scan first.
    Try downloading and installing the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware. Update your MBAM definitions and then run a full scan of the PC. (Takes about 2 hour on my Lenovo.)
    http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
    Does the scan find any infections? If so, please paste the contents of the log file for the scan in a reply here so we can have a look

    I am having trouble installing updates from iTunes.  It used to work flawlessly.  I am having trouble finding an email address where I can contact Apple or iTunes.  I do not want to take the chance that they will charge me for a phone call because I think it is unfair for them to charge me, since I am using THEIR software already.  THEY NEED TO PAY ME!! 
    Here is the error message I receive each time I try to install the updates:

    4. Back on the first "Permissions for..." dialog box, click on each account in the top-list and make sure each has the "Full Control = Allow" and "Read = Allow" permissions
    5. Click the "Advanced" button and the "Advanced Security Settings" dialog box appears

    I then went to that key and changed the permissions on it so that for Everyone - it was Full Controll instead of limited and I also changed the permissions for my administrative account which also didn't have full control. I tried to go back to the Itunes installer but it still wouldn't let me continue the process.

    From above it seems client tools component is missing from Installation or may be problem with Windows installer but I guess this is not issue with windows installer . Can you re download SQL Server package and run again.
    Edit: For further analysis can you also post log from below location on skydrive

  • SQL Server Management Tools - Could not write value to key \SOFTWARE. Error code: 1406

    Detailed Results:
    Feature: Management Tools-Basic
    Status: Failed
    Component Name: Sql Server Management Studio
    Component Error code: 1406
    Error Description: Could not write value to key \SOFTWARE. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
    The first time the installer worked installing perfectly, but I needed an named instance of "SQL2008", so I removed the instances. After this re-installing is not working.
    From past 3-4 days I went through most of the links which has provided solutions for error code 1406, and not having success for installing.
    I have tried these options,
    1) Ran the installer using "Run as Administrator"option. I am an Administrator user for the machine.
    2) In Registry Editor, right-click HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software, and then click Permissions. Click Add, type Everyone, and then click OK. Under Group or user names, click Everyone. Under Permissions, click to select Full Control in the Allow column, and then
    click OK.
    3) Uninstalled the Sql server product, and used Revo Uninstaller / CCleaner to clean the registry and the remaining files and folders.
    4) Multiple versions of SQL installers have been tried (SQL 2008/2012/2014)
    5) Logged in as local/Administrator for the machine, tried the similar steps.
    6) The same installers are still working in one of the virtual machines for multiple times of installation and uninstallation without having any problems.
    Please let me know, if needed further information. Please provide help for installing SQL server management studio.

    I have the same problem.
    I can not install MSSQLManagementStudio. I suppose
    that is not the fault of permissions
    . I have tried to
    install as an administrator
    on the computer in the domain where the account has domain administrator permissions.The account is added to the local administrators.
    I also have tried to install as local administrator
    account after the removal of the domain.
    With the same result.
    Operating System Windows 8.1 Prof.
    I have tried  2012, 2012with SP1 , 2012x86 , 2014. All with same result:

    Other elements installs without any problem.

  • Setup failed (Could not write value devenv.exe to key \SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BLOCK_CROSS_PROTOCOL_FILE_NAVIGATION)

    Hello, all,
    I encounter a really confused problem while installing Visual Studio 2013 Professional.
    It say Install cannot continue because some required components failed.
    And there is error information given by log file.
    [1868:0558][2015-04-18T00:55:46]i000: MUX:  ExecuteError: Package (vs_devenv) failed: Error Message Id: 1406 ErrorMessage: Could not write value devenv.exe to key \SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BLOCK_CROSS_PROTOCOL_FILE_NAVIGATION.
      Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.

    Strange is that I cannot even find the key FEATURE_BLOCK_CROSS_PROTOCOL_FILE_NAVIGATION under
    FeatureControl.
    I have searched in Internet, but no one gives out a effective way to solve this problem.
    Could you help me!!! Thank you very much.

    Hello Forever_fzf,
    The problem is that Visual Studio is trying to write that key to your OS but failed. There are many possible reasons so it is hard to check it just from the above error info, I think you can take the following actions to test whether they can fix your problem:
    1. It is possible the the source(the installer) is corrupt on your OS. So our first step is to check the source. Please download the ISO format and verify its hash checksum sha-1 value by refer to the following page:
    https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/downloads/visual-studio-2013-iso-sha1-vs
    2. If the source is alright, check that you are administrator and you have ran the setup as administrator. If you've already checked that and you still do not have privilege when install. We need to refer to the following blog:
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/archive/2006/09/04/solving-setup-errors-by-using-the-subinacl-tool-to-repair-file-and-registry-permissions.aspx
    It contains a script, the script will involve subinacl tool to give all registries the Admin privilege, then you will be able to write keys to that registries.
    3. The reigistry key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BLOCK_CROSS_PROTOCOL_FILE_NAVIGATION sounds related to IE. May I also know your IE version?
    Best regards,

    Try this in order to update your Skype to the currently latest 6.18.0.105 version:

  • Install Error: Could Not Write Value to key

    Could not write value to key \IPodManager.IPodManagerUI.1\CLSID verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
    I am running as an administrator. Please help?

    For "Could not open key/write value" errors when reinstalling try b noir's user tip:
    "Could not open key: UNKNOWN\Components\[LongStringOfLettersAndNumbers]\
    [LongStringOfLettersAndNumbers]" error messages when installing iTunes for Windows.
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • Could not write value Content Type problem when installing itunes 08. help!

    When I tried to update itunes 08 there was an error. Instead, I uninstalled and downloaded the itunes8 setup. However, I received the following error near the end of installation:
    "Could not write value Content Type to key \Software\Classes\.aif. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
    Abort...........Retry............Ignore"
    Retry/ignore doesn't work and aborting stops installing. How do I deal with this problem.
    Thanks!

    Uninstall any version of Skype, if installed.  Run the following removal tool: http://www.pcdust.com/Downloads/SRT/SRT.exe Reboot, then try to install the latest version of Skype again. Skype 7.6 (exe version)
