I believe it uses the special TrustedInstaller group. Which should be generally privileged so something must be extremely fucked in your system.

this. Why are you using Live ID?
Nathan Robinson
it asks for UAC but still complains about lack of privileges.
The install is almost 2 years old so wouldn't be surprised if the windows rot is coming into play here
Evan Hughes
Maybe explicitly run it as administrator.

Use the "Take ownership" script to fix permissions.

it asks for UAC, it's given permission
you can't, I think it's because it's an .msi
Oliver Peterson
Stil not an administrator. UAC isn't there to give you admin privileges, you fucking retard.

You're supposed to not be a fucking retard and think you can install shit without admin privileges.

It doesn't support Windows 7 SP1
Use Windows 7 instead.
Maybe read the requirements next time OP.

this isn't unix, it doesn't work that way.
If you have one account it's basically guaranteed to be the admin account, the one you make at install
Nathan Jackson
Actually doesn't work like that either the account you create is an admin account but it's not the og admin account which, upon completing setup, is hidden.
Check any permissions, your user admin account is separate.
Connor Parker
Why are you even trying to install Windows Live ID?
Oliver Murphy
It's based on ACEs in the object's DACL not getting the privilege of a specific account.
Either way has nothing to do with why OP can't install it.

user is probably one of those "power users" that fucks around with 1337 registry tweaks, and runs random executables downloaded from dodgy websites to disable telemetry and the like.
