Error Writing To File Verify That You Have Access To That Directory

Written By Monday, November 8, 2021 Add Comment Edit

Issue

When you install Adobe Creative Suite 4 or a CS4 application, the installation fails and the following error appears:

"Error 1310. Error writing to file: File path. Verify that you have access to that directory."

The following appears in the Adobe Creative Suite 4 installation log file:

Error 1310.Error writing to file: C:\Config.Msi\1658852.rbf. Verify that you have access to that directory. Action ended 15:34:12: InstallFinalize. Return value 3.

Solution

Do one or more of the following:

Solution 1: Disable startup items and services.

Some applications or services can cause system errors or freezes when running concurrently with a CS4 product. Services are specialized programs that perform functions to support other programs. Before starting a CS4 product, disable other applications, including startup items (items that start automatically with Windows), and services.

To disable startup items and services, see Disable startup items and services (Windows XP) (kb404984).

To reenable startup items and services:

  1. Choose Start > Run, type msconfig, and click OK.

  2. Choose Normal Startup on the General tab, click OK, and restart the computer.

Note: If deselected items are present on the Services or Startup tab, then deselect them again.

Solution 2: Rename the Config.msi folder.

In some cases, permissions on this folder are in such a state that the permissions changes described below are ineffective. To test to see if data in this folder is causing the problems, try the following:

  1. Rename the folder C:\Config.Msi to C:\Config.msi.old.

    Important:  If you can't see the Application Data folder proceed to the section, "To show hidden files and folders." If the folder still doesn't appear, then it doesn't exist, and is not the source of your problems. Or, your network account policies affect its visibility. In the later case, consult with your network administrator.

  2. Run the Adobe installer.

    • If you enabled the option for showing hidden files and folders in step 1, then proceed to the section, "To hide hidden files and folders."

Note: If you are unable to change the name of the folder, attempt the permissions changes described below, then try again.

Solution 3: Change permissions for the parent folder referenced in the error message.

Important: The folder in the error messages appears immediately after, "writing to file." The parent directory is the folder immediately before the last file referenced in the error. In the example the file that could not be written is 1658852.rbf and is located in C:\Config.msi. The parent folder to the file being written in the example above is Config.msi and is found directly off Local Disk C. If you cannot locate the folder mentioned, enable hidden files and folders.
