Check your permissions and owner of Public Documents. Make sure that
you have full rights to C:\Users\public\documents\Pinnacle as well.
Your Administrator group should be the owner of these folders. Right-
click the folder, Properties, Security tab, Advanced button. The
Permissions tab shows you who has access and what kind of access. The
Owner tab shows you the owner and lets you change owners if you like.
The Effective Permissions tab lets you key in a user ID and check
their permissions.
Depending on your NTFS security, the installs may continue to fail on
other folders.
