Error 1321 When Installing OpenOffice 3.3

Error 1321 When Installing OpenOffice 3.3

Hi,

While re-installing Open Office 3.3 you are getting the error code: Error 1321. The Installer has insufficient privileges to modify the file C:Program FilesOpenOffice.org 3programsoffice.bin. This error message indicates that you do not have the opportunity to reinstall the Open Office 3.3. To get the opportunity you may need to log on your PC as an Administrator. It is to be mentioned here that if your PC is set up by someone else you may not have access to the computer as an Administrator. So to gain Administrator privileges on your PC contact the respective technician. I think you will come to know the reason.          

I hope you understand it.

Error 1321 When Installing OpenOffice 3.3

If you are having this problem then the issue is related only to permission and there’s no problem with the installer. If you have a permission error during the installation, check if you are using an administrator account because standard or limited user accounts are not allowed to perform an installation. Only administrator accounts can install programs on the computer.

On the other hand, if you are using an administrator account and you have this error, try running the installer with elevated privilege. Right-click the OpenOffice installer or setup file then select “Run as administrator”. Click “Yes” when you are prompted with UAC to continue. This should run the setup wizard with full administrative privileges. This should fix the problem.
