Did not you mentioned how to fix a problem yourself?
You have to run program which is changing files in system folders as an administrator, having administrator account is not enough..

Hi,

I'm using QT installer framework (the binary release 1.3.0) to distribute (offline) my Windows application. The default target directory is set to C:\Program files (x86)\MyApp. When I run the installer on a computer with windows 7 the "User Account Control" window is displayed right before any files will install. I Press Yes, and the installation continues. When the progressbar hits 99 % en error message is displayed; "Could not write installer configuration to C:\Program files (x86)\MyApp/uninstall.ini: Access error", not the forward slash after MyApp (don't think this is the problem). If a make some investigations before I press the OK button in the error message, I can see that the installer installed the files to the correct directory. When I hit the OK button the installation is aborted and all files are removed again.

If I run the installer by right clicking on it and select "Run as administrator",  the installation will finish without a problem.

How can I make this work?

Best regards,
Niclas
