MORE INFORMATION

The error indicates that you do not have sufficient permissions to update the system registry. Even if you are logged in as a system administrator, you may encounter this error if the system has been upgraded from a previous version of Windows.

6. Expand the "Software" key, and repeat steps 3, 4 for "Classes"
7. Expand the "Classes" key, and repeat steps 3, 4 for "Installer"
8. If you have made any changes in steps 1 through 7, skip to step 10. If you did not make any changes,  continue with step 9.

9.Open the "Classes" key, and click on "Installer" . In the menu, click "Security", "Permissions." Click the    button marked "Advanced." Check "Reset Permissions on all child objects.", then click OK

10. Close the registry editor
