Installing Lacerte 2019 on W10 Home 64 giving error

GTsalinas
Level 1

Hello,

I am trying to install Lacerte 2019 on a Windows 10 Home 64 bit  laptop. I am getting the error:

unable to write  data to file.  Administrative privileges required to install the program.

I am logged in with the local administrator account (the machine is currently not attached to the domain since it is "Home" version of windows). 

I have run the setup program as administrator.

I have looked around to see if it can be installed on windows 10 home machine but all I see if 64 bit as a requirement.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated while I sit on hold with tech support during tax season!

 

Thanks!
