I updated my exceptions in BitDefender AV per the instructions from the site. I'm not getting the AV alert any more. Now I get the following: "An error occurred while trying to rename a file in the destination directory: MoveFile failed; code 5 Access is denied" The error window message goes on to say.. Click Retry to try again, Ignore to skip this file (not recommended), or Abort to cancel installation. I don't want to ignore the error for fear the program won't work. clicking retry just produces the same error message and code. Any assistance would be a great help.. Thx, Kev I got it squared away... Even though I has set all the exceptions there was a box on another tab that needed to be changed to allow in firewall rules and once I did that and shut the active scanning for 5 min. the program installed no problem. I had a follow on issue... trying to open the program gave me a permission issue.. I tried to open the program a few times as the admin. and nothing.. the same permission issue. I closed it and tried it again and boom, it worked.. Now to figure this program out so I can play some of the awesome CDLC that awesome folks have loaded up for us.. Thx again, Kev
