Unable to extract temp directory.  EX11

Unable to extract temp directory.  EX11.  What is the solution???

Nobody can tell you anything without proper system information and other technical details, but it very much means what it says - your temp directory is inaccessible. Whether that's simply because it is full, you don't have sufficient user privileges or something is blocking it, we can't know at this point.

  • Problem installing InDesign CC - Installation failed - unable to extract temp directory. (EX11)

    Hi, I have problems downloading the software. It says unable to extract temp directory. (EX11). Please help.

    It means what it says - you need to fix your file permissions on your system's temp folder, clean it up and make room, defragment the harddrive.

  • Unable to Extract to Temp Directory (EX11 error for InDesign CC)

    Good Afternoon,
    I purchased the annual subscription for the creative cloud suite, for use on my Windows 7 PC.  All programs downloaded and installed just fine, with the exception of InDesign.  I receive the error "Installation failed - unable to extract to temp directory.  Please contact customer support (EX11)."
    Screenshot of error provided: Dropbox - Screenshot 2014-09-07 10.16.48.png
    In searching through the forums, I found several similar instances; however, I didn't really see any resolutions.  It just so happens that InDesign is the program I need most for a project with a deadline approaching this week.  Figures it would be the one that gives me trouble on the install
    Any assistance that could be provided, as timely as possible, would be very greatly appreciated.  Thank you in advance!

    I resolve this error by searching through other forums.
    Apparently there is a bug where if your Windows account name is longer than 12 characters, you are unable to install InDesign.  My administrator account name is 13 characters.  I created a second administrator account, with the name "test" and I was able to then install InDesign without any issue.
    I hope that others who have the same issue I did find this to be helpful.

  • Installation error for Indesign CC "Unable to extract to temp directory. Contact Customer Support EX11". What can I do?

    Haven't been able to install Adobe Indesign CC through Creative Cloud. Gives the following installation error "Unable to extract to temp directory. Contact Customer Support EX11". What can I do?

    Jeremy Jediel Gongora then it is likely a file permission failure as was previously discussed.  You can find details on how to adjust the file permissions of your temp directory at Error "Exit 6" or "Exit 7" | Install log | Read, write, system file errors | CS5, CS5.5 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-exit-6-exit-7.html.
    I would also recommend reviewing your installation log files for additional error messages.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation log files at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html.  You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.

  • Installation failed: Unable to extract to temp directory. EX11

    Hi there,
    Today I decided to upgrade from ADOBE CS4 toa CC subscription. I am on PC, running WINDOWS 7. My main design computer is 64-bit, my laptop runs 32 bit WINDOWS. I downloaded the app manager and selected apps without problems on my main computer - but as I am trying to install on my Fujitsu Lifebook T900 laptop computer (running 32-bit Windows 7) - I get download problems - so far both Photoshop and Indesign have failed to install. Bridge updated sucessfully.
    NOTE: I did uninstall CS4 on my laptop and reboot my system before beginning the CC app download
    The error message for INDESIGN states this:
    Installation failed
    Unable to extract to temp directory. Please contact customer support. (EX11)
    Can you help me with how to make this work?
    Thanks
    Helma Sawatzky

    Hi Helma,
    Please follow the below steps:
    1) Quit Adobe creative cloud desktop application.
    2) Click on start button and right click on Properties.
    3) Advanced system settings>> Advanced>> Environment Variables>> Highlight first line item and click on Edit.
    4) Variable Name: TEMP and Variable value: "C:\Temp". Do the same thing for the second line item.
    5) Click Ok and Apply, once done launch Adobe creative cloud and then try to install Indesign once again.
    Please let me know if that helps

    Tjshannonhigg you will want to ensure that the User account you are logged into has proper access to the temp directory and that there is sufficient disk space available.

  • When I try to update I get an U44M1I210 error message, "Unable to extract the downloaded files" - help please, applies to latest Indesign, Illustrator and Photoshop CC

    When I try to do a CC update I get an U44M1I210 error message, "Update failed - Unable to extract the downloaded files. Press retry to download again. (U44M1I210)" - help please - re-downloading makes no difference, applies to latest Indesign, Illustrator and Photoshop CC, others seemed to update without problems. I can see the disk image files in AAMUpdater folder but they will not open and come up with "couldn't be opened - resource busy" message.

    Yes Jeff, I did all those several times to no avail.
    I've included a small error snippet from two installs here. In Creative Cloud when updating the Apps, all 3 get to 50%, then the failure occurs. Retrying starts at 50% and fails the same way each time.
    This first one is a segment from the Indesign updater - I have always had the all hard drive folders with read and write privileges allowed and I checked again, this is still the case so I do not know why this particular error message is arising. The second snippet if from the Illustrator update.

  • Unable to set working directory (-2147024832) for some app installs

    I've found several drivers on a Dell Laptop that don't play well with others in MDT 2012, so I started making an application install package for them instead.  Most of them fail with an "unable to set working directory" error.  I checked
    the app install logs and they don't really make any sense to me.  I know the process as a whole works, because I can install .Net 4.0 runtimes without any problems using the same method.  The important bits of the ZTI App log are below.  Would
    be for any guidance on this, as I'm stumped and none of the searches on the exact errors are of much help.
    A sample error returned in the wizard is:
    WARNING - unable to set working directory (-2147024832)Error installing application Dell 3440_Chipset_Driver_JD3WN IMEI drivers 9.5.3.1520_A00: The system cannot find the file specified.
    The ZTIApplication.log file contains the following... the first is one that works (.NET 4), the second is one that fails. (Not using code block for this one, it doesn't like it).

    Why can't it find it or set the working directory, especially when it's already validated that it's there?

    I'm not familiar with how Dell does their client side software, but for the server-side software (my area of expertise), I've always done something like the following:
    I recommend running every application install in a VBScript/Powershell wrapper.  You get logging for the application back on your SLShare as well as its cleaner (you can replace Drivers A05 with A06 by changing the script, rather than editing the application
    in MDT).
    sApplicationName = "Dell 12G Chipset"
    oLogging.CreateEntry "Install-" & sApplicationName & ": Starting " & sApplicationName & " installation", LogTypeInfo
    '//Set Destination Folder
    sDestFolder = "c:\temp\"
    '//Set Source Install Directory
    sSourceDir = oUtility.ScriptDir
    sSourceDir = sSourceDir & "\Source"
    '//Check that folder exists, if not, create it.
    oLogging.CreateEntry "Install-" & sApplicationName & ": Check that " & sDestFolder & " exists.", LogTypeInfo
    if not oFSO.FolderExists (sDestFolder) then
    oFSO.CreateFolder sDestFolder
    End If
    '//Copy folder from MDT share to C:\Temp
    oLogging.CreateEntry "Install-" & sApplicationName & ": Copy from " & sSourceDir & " to " & sDestFolder, LogTypeInfo
    oFSO.CopyFolder sSourceDir, sDestFolder
    '//Sleep for 2 seconds to allow copy to finish
    wscript.sleep 2000
    sFile = sDestFolder & "Source\setup.exe"
    '// Check if file/folder exists
    If not oFSO.FileExists(sFile) then
    oLogging.CreateEntry "Install-" & sApplicationName & ": " & sFile & " was not found, unable to install " & sApplicationName & "", LogTypeError
    ZTIProcess = Failure
    Exit Function
    End if
    '// Create log entry to show file being run
    oLogging.CreateEntry "" & sFile & " -s", LogTypeInfo
    iRetVal = oUtility.RunWithHeartbeat("" & sFile & " -s")
    if (iRetVal = 0) or (iRetVal = 3010) then
    ZTIProcess = Success
    Else
    ZTIProcess = Failure
    End If
    wscript.sleep 15000
    '// Disable Zone Checks
    oEnv("SEE_MASK_NOZONECHECKS") = 1
    '//Folder Cleanup
    oFSO.DeleteFolder sDestFolder & "Source"
    I always copy any drivers that are installed after the fact (everything for me other than SAS/NIC drivers) to the C:\Temp as it can break.  I always update my NIC drivers during the build to the latest Dell software using their packs.  I try to
    not mess with my boot image unless I'm adding a new model that is not supported by the built-in drivers.
