I am running into a technical problem. Before I can run an exe file compiled by matlab I have to install MCR run time. But my installation cannot be made. My laptop was installed with Vista. The compiler version is 7.9. I have tried to install it on C:/, C:/program file and C:\user\FCS\Documents and none of them worked. The error message says 'The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation'. I also have a very old version of matlab installed on my computer under C:\. I am not sure this is the problem with the path or the setting of my vista. Besides, this is my laptop, I have the administrator's privilege for sure. Please suggest how to fix this. Thank you very much.

Best
Yu

You may be certain that you have administrator privileges, but just to be
certain why don't you open up your user account using the Control Panel and
confirm that. Perhaps something happened that changed your user
permissions.

Hi,

Thanks a lot for the reply. I checked as you suggested and I am the administrator. Someone send me a link that talks about similar error, which I posted below:

I guess this is in the right direction but there is no Installer folder under windows in my version of Vista.

Hi,

I found this link: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/80938-user-account-control-uac-elevate-privilege-level.html.

My laptop is installed with Vista business. So I followed the Local Security Policy method and it didn't work.

So I tried the Through Registry Editor method, which suppose to work for all Vista. But it failed again. The error message still says the System Administrator has set policies to prevent this installation.

Anyone knows what is the problem?

Yu

I think this is going to require more in-depth investigation ... I suggest
you and/or the person who compiled the application that you're trying to run
contact Technical Support.
