Installing Office Enterprise 2007, Error 1913
Leendert. 6/17/2007 2:19:01 PM
When installing office, i get the message:
Error 1913, setup cannot update file C:WINDOWS/win.ini. Verify that the
file exists in your system and that you have sufficient permission to update
it.
I found an answer about clearing up the 'read only' button, this button was
already cleared.
I am the one and only administrator of this computer.
Who can help???

This indeed is my error.
Only I work in WINDOWS XP, and I'm installing Office Enterprice.

The read-only box is not selected.
I did rename win.ini. I named it indeed win.old
I didn't succeed to set the WIndows Installer Policy. How to add the group
policy snap-in? Where do i find that???

Tnx for helping, please help me on?

I'm about as clueless as you but...

Are you just now installing Office for the first time? Seems odd that you'd
be installing Office on a clean system and get a win.ini error.
