Same problem here, but not solved when creating the temp file manually? What can I do to solve this problem?
See picture for error message I get…
Thanks
Real
Tried to install the .exe 2.0.5 version.
“Unable to execute file in the temporary folder. Setup aborted. Error 5. Access denied.”
Is that a correct translation?
What are you doing that produces that error?
Our posts crossed.
You may need to run the installer with administrative privileges. Try running it again by right clicking on the icon and select “Run As Administrator”.

Steve, that is a correct translation indeed. I just tried to install the program again and followed your advice to run the .exe as administrator and now the installation succeeded and the program works just fine!
Thank you very much for your help.
