Just install SQuirreL into different directory. Microsoft idea of security is to create extra hurdles for users; you
can use a subdirectory of “C:\Program Files (x86)”, but it will require custom rights, and I’m not sure it is worth the effort. -- Alexandre Peshansky, MS Lead Bioinformatics Analyst, Research Informatics Core (RIC) Harold & Muriel Block Institute for Clinical & Translational Research at Einstein and Montefiore Albert Einstein College of Medicine 1300 Morris Park Ave, Block Bldg., Rm 534 Bronx, NY 10461 (718) 430-2440, (914) 457-6792 (office) (201) 970-3530 (cell) – NEW!!!

I am trying to install the current version of SQuirreL on a Windows 10 machine. I've downloaded the executable squirrel-sql-snapshot-20170430_2224-standard.jar
file. When I execute it, I was prompted to Select The Installation Path:. The default value is
C:\Program files (x86)\squirrel-sql-snapshot-20170430_2224 When I try to accept this default by clicking the Next button, I get an error message that says,
The directory cannot be written! Please choose another directory! There is a response on Squirrel-SQL-Users that says to create the C:\Program files (x86)\squirrel-sql-snapshot-20170430_2224 directory manually in MS Explorer.
However, even after I did that, I get the same error message.
What do I need to do differently?

Hold shift and right-click on the installer file in explorer and select ‘Copy as path’ Click on Start Menu and type CMD, right click on ‘Command Prompt’ and select ‘Run as administrator’ Paste copied path to jar installer file at command prompt and click enter. In my case it looks like this C:\WINDOWS\System32>"C:\Users\wesleyn.MWP\Downloads\squirrel-sql-snapshot-20170430_2224-standard.jar" Best Regards, From: Steve Carry [mailto:[hidden email]]

I just did this today. You just need to log in with your admin account or run the command prompt with admin rights. You will then be able to install Squirrel to
“C:\Program Files (x86)\Squirrel”
directory. I successfully installed Squirrel and tested it in Windows 10. Sincerely, Lynne Marie Laffrey Data Engineer Business Analytics – ICT FCA US LLC From: Alexandre Peshansky [mailto:[hidden email]]
