Forum Topic - Installing qnxsdp-6.4.1-200905201802-win32.exe: (6 Items)
   
Installing qnxsdp-6.4.1-200905201802-win32.exe  
Hi all,

I got a strange error message during the install:

NOTE: %SystemRoot%\Fonts directory is not writable by the current user. This
directory will need to be accessed during installation of this product. Please set
directory permissions accordingly.

Any ideas how to fix that one?

Thanks,

Martin

Hi Martin,

This error message is usually displayed when the user account on your system does not have write privilege to the Fonts 
directory (C:\WINDOWS\Fonts).  

Can you check if "Read only" attribute of the Fonts folder Properties is set?   If so, please change that, so the folder
 is not  "Read only".   Then try installing 6.4.1 again.  

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I tried that one already before, did not help.

But thanks for the hint :)

I noticed that the path to the Fonts directory in the error message was not resolved as expected.  This might be the 
reason why this condition check failed.  You can try installation bypassing this check (run the following on command 
line):

qnxsdp-6.4.1-200905201802-win32.exe -W beanIsFontsDirWritable.active="False"

Please post your installation log file after installation completes.
