Ok. Thank you sir. Going to get some game time in, or try to.

Long wait here - busy week at work. But it succeeded without Taser. What is taser exactly and how do I install it if I want it.

Yes, Taser is checked.

Any other ideas? I still have been unable to install this.

Yes I have. I am running as Admin I am unable to disable read only on my GTA IV folder no matter what I try (probably my issue) All 4 Green ticks present.

Haha it's ok. I noticed your signature so wasn't expecting a response until today! There's the issue I'm getting.

Well that didn't make any difference. :(

Oooooh. That's a good idea. I will try this. I'm at work now so I won't be able to update until I get home. Thank you

By the way Windows 7 And yes, I disabled UAC a long time ago. Thank you for the idea though! Insanely fast response, lol.

Hello, Thank you for the help up front. So I downloaded the install file, pointed it to my directory, and the install fails. Upon searching, I see there are multiple topics on the issue at hand, and then attempt to troubleshoot with the help of these posts. I have all four green checkmarks, that is not my issue. I then move on to the "Make sure your GTA IV is not Read-Only". Ok, so I attempt to do this. I un-check the box and make it apply to all sub files and folders. It goes through it's little process, and then says done! Ok great! Well, install fails again. And I go back and find that the folder is re-checked as read only. I then go into the advanced properties and make account the owner of the file instead of "Administrators" and ensure I have full control, etc. Once I do this, I again try to change the folder only to fail again. I then turn to an elevated CMD prompt and attempt to make the file un-Read Only. This appears to work at first, but upon running the installer, it fails again. And when returning to the folder it is still checked. So - here I am. I am not sure what to do from this point forward. Do I need to copy the install to a separate directory? I don't see what difference that would make. My C: drive is a SSD, but I have my steam library junctioned to my D: HDD. I did this before steam supported having a separate library, and it is in an old "junctioned" folder, not the steam management tool. This shouldn't make any difference though, should it? Thanks for your help!
