Arceus Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Have you tried running it as admin (and/or are you an admin on the computer)?

Once you have done that, click on it to get the raw image, then click the "image" icon in the toolbar at the top where you post and paste the link in that box. Then click okay and the image should be embedded in your post. "Fight for what you believe in, and believe in what you're fighting for."

Arceus Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Hmm, what's weird. Unfortunately I'm not sure how to resolve it but hopefully someone knows. You could also try downloading a fresh copy again, just in case it got corrupted or something. "Fight for what you believe in, and believe in what you're fighting for."

Ammako Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 If right-clicking it doesn't give you an option to run it as admin, have you tried running cmd as admin, navigating to the folder where the installer is, and running the .msi installer that way?

Miss Lioness Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 You surely have either "Run" or a "Search" bar.Type in "CMD" and right click the Dos program and choose operate as admin or Run in administrator mode or something.

Miss Lioness Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Simple google search netted me this answer:Once you got the CMD prompt running in administrator settings type out the following: msiexec /i C:\\[insert path to file location]\RuneScape.msi The path to the file location can easily be found. In the map where the file is located, click on the bar at the top, you might need to double click. The link you see here includes " C:\\ " , so you just need to add what comes after it. You then close it with a backward slash " \ " and then type in RuneScape.msi. This should fix the problem. Otherwise there is another program that interferes with RuneScape. 1 Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
