I'm trying to install & update Bethesda Launcher on Windows 7 x32. Every time I run it, it fails, stating
There was an error downloading the required files. Please check install directory permissions and try again.
Actions I'd taken so far:
- By monitoring it with SysInternals Process Monitor, I see that it doesn't even try to access the Internet.
- With the same tool I am also able to see that it receives no
FAILEDresult when accessing files. - Turned off and removed my AV.
- Given full access to my user, Administrators group & TrustedInstaller.
UPDATE Checked so that no file in it's installation directory is marked as read-only.
UPDATE 2 It is of course run as administrator.
UPDATE 3 Installation in other directories leads to same results.
I also have Internet access only via proxy server on that PC. It is set as both IE proxy and winhttp system-wide proxy. I suspected that that could be the root of my problem, but as I've already said it doesn't even try to access the Internet.

Right click the shortcut and select Run as Administrator? Windows UAC sometimes doesn't work like you think it does. It's just really bizarre.

@Mazura Sorry, was kinda busy. Yes, it's in Program Files. I'll try installing it somewhere else, since that's what you imply.

@Mazura Nope, didn't work. Tried three different installation location, including %USERPROFILE%, nothing worked.
