Not enough privileges when installing free physical viewer 16.3 on Win 7

Hi,

I am getting an error message saying that I do not have sufficient privileges to install the viewer and that I have to log as an administrator which I already are.

This happens on my job PC as well as my private one. A colleague of me running Win 7 32-bit doesn't have this problem.

Someone have solution for this?

With Windows Vista and Windows 7 you are never "really" Administartor when UAC, User Account Control, is enabled (the default). Try running the installer EXE with a right-click>Run as Administrator option and see if that clears the issue.
Your colleague may have UAC disabled.
