When attempting to install Foglight Transaction Recorder (FTR) exe, we get this error: "Error 1303. The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory"
The FTR client Recorder creates/accesses directories during its install and creates files in those directories. The directories are for the sample/instructional out-of-box FTR scripts, the 'My Foglight Scripts' which are created in the user's home directory (not to be confused with the Installation Directory) and the samples which are installed under that folder.
The installer has insufficient privileges/permissions to access this directory or perhaps that directory is encrypted. There is not a way to prevent those folders from being installed or to specify where to create them at. It would be good for the user to be able to make the installation of the sample scripts optional. Regarding this, enhancement request EU-554 has been submitted to Development for consideration in a future release of FTR.
WORKAROUND
If you able able to first manually create the required directories, you will get a successful installation.
