Download problem

[machfee]

please could you help.when i try to download ,a message comes up saying the directory is invalid,i dont know what i have done to get this problem.

When you attempt a download and it asks you where to save it, what is the EXACT name of the path and folder that you use?

eg, C:\Documents and Settings\CCT\Downloads\

download problems

c:\users\ecs.LH_EFSSDIBUCJQ\download\cdble.exe

And if you tell the downloader to save the download in C:\desktop, what happens?

i dont have permission to save in this location 'contact the administrator.it asks would you like to save in the ecs.LH-EFSSDIBUCJQ folder instead but it opens the folder and a desk top symbol appears.but to no avail,thanks

I came across this (if you have Vista):

"Start > type "run" > on the new window type "msconfig" > click on the "Tools" tab > Scroll to "Disable UAC" and click on "Launch". Restart and try running any setup from anywhere on your computer.


I found that on another forum. Try it and see if it works.
If it does then you need to figure out how to use vista's "UAC" thing because I don't know."

In the future please be detailed with your questions.
Your problem is that you are not the computer administrator and you are trying to download into a protected area. Either log on as the administrator or have the admin give you the rights.
