Upon click on the option (Windows 7), I get the following error log:

    This appears only in Windows 7, and only sometimes.

    I may need add additional permissions in the installer AccessControl::GrantOnFile from here:

    May need to set to add "WriteData + AppendData + ReadData" or just go with "FullAccess."

    I'm having trouble duplicating this, if anyone can make it happen and can provide the steps I'll fix it.

    Can anyone with this bug please run the following and post the results?

    cacls "C:\ProgramData\Appupdater"
    cacls "C:\ProgramData\Appupdater\<filename>"

    This should be fixed in svn r1062. I introduced two modes, "system" and "user" so the default permissions in "system" mode should be sufficient to fix this. Instead of all users needing to access "ProgramData" it should only be administrators.
