hi
i just downloaded the free download of f.e.a.r combat, and when i go to install it, towards the end of the installation, it says that Access is Denied to the folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Monolith Productions\...and later on when i go to try and open C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents, it says Access is Denied because it's "Not Accessible"
i have the only account on this computer so is that why the "All Users" part doesnt work?
what is going on???? i tried going properties and stuff but nothing is working...what can i do to get this installation done?!?!? ive tried 3-4 times already with the same result

try moving the install to, say, C:\fear . Installation path may be too long. Also make sure that your windows user has administrator rights. You can install applications "for all users" only with admin rights.

i cant do anything about the path tho..the first path option is to program files (which i want it to go there), and the second is just for the start menu, the path for that....what else can i do??

Try creating another user account and installing it on there. You should still be able to launch it from your account.

ok thx chaz, i tried making a new account and i installed it but it still doesnt work cause its a certain folder on my computer thats not being accessible...
when i try going My Computer>C:drive>Documents and Settings>All Users>Documents, it says its not accessible and Access Denied...its that folder thats not working at all, so what can i do to make that folder work? cause now its not just about the game anymore, its about a folder on my computer thats faulty, so what if in the future it doesnt work again? then i cant do anything!!! what can i do??? -

That is an odd folder that it wants to install to:
Are you sure you cannot specify the directory to install to? I'm going to download FEAR Combat and install on my machine, and I'll see what happens.
EDIT: Ok, I am installing it . . I was able to change the installation directory, but it defaulted to (for me):
C:\Program Files\Sierra\FEARCombat
Interesting that yours says "Monolith Productions". I attached a screenshot of where the installation folder can be changed.Attached Files:

yea it is program files but at the very end of the installation, it says it tries to go to that inaccessible folder...man this is pissing me off >.<
