Hello,

file. However when I open it, it show the following mess "There was a
file access problem. You have to be logged into Windows as a user with
Admin rights", even if I run it as a "Run as administrator"" option.
Could you please help??

Is the application designed to be capable of installing and running on
Vista? What has this application's manufacturer' technical support had
to say about this issue?

Thanks Flavius, yes you are right, this is a game Age of Empires.
Actually Readme doc says:

*A. Installing -Age of Empires III-*

To install -Age of Empires III-, you must have administrator rights on
your computer and your computer must be running Microsoft Windows® XP.

so I guess is non-compatible w vista?

Any suggestion?>

Thanks for you help!

I understand the game is already installed,you can't only run game..
Find folder where game is installed and change permission:You have to
give for USERS group MODIFY right to this folder:
