Solutions
The methods to eliminate this installation error in QuickBooks are mentioned below-
Solution 1- Configure the %temp% folder permissions on your Windows
The %temp% or temporary folder ensures the smooth functioning of your system applications by storing the files they require to run. The files are stored temporarily during the application runs and can be extracted by the applications whenever needed. The temporary folder saves a lot of time as the applications would otherwise have to search the files again and again in the hard drive. You might encounter this error if QuickBooks hasn’t been allotted the folder permissions required to access the folder. Follow the steps below-
- Press Windows + R on your keyboard to open the Run window on your PC.
- Type %temp% in the command field and press Enter.
- Right-click inside the %temp% folder on an empty space and tap Properties.
- Select your account’s username in the Security tab.
- Click the Full Control checkbox to mark it and allot the required permissions to QuickBooks.
- Tap Apply and then Ok to finish the process.
- Try to install QuickBooks again after the settings are saved.
