Can't install Adobe Reader 8.

I get this error "the temp folder is on a drive that is full or is
inacessible . Free up space on the drive or verify that you have write
permission on the Temp folder." How can I fix this? I cleaned out the
Windows temp directory. I'm logged in locally with the administrator account.

I got the same error message but was finally able to install it by locating
the folder the file was unpacked too, and copying it to another location and
then running it from there. Runs fine once installed.

After you run the file and it unpacks it will ask you again if you want to
run the the setup. Leave the dialog box where it is (don't select either
option) rather find the location where the files have been unpacked (like
c:\users\yourname\lowlocal\netopsystems\etc), copy the all the files to a new
location then close the dialog box and run the installation setup from the
files you copied.

This worked. Thanks.

I also had this problem and solved the problem by right-clicking the
file and selecting Properties. The on the Compatability tab I said run
thin WinXP SP2 Compatible mode.

That's a great idea too.
