VSCODE Installation crashes on my 64 bit Win7 Sp1.
I guess the reason is likely that I only have one drive (C:\).
VSCODE might want to access some path on D:\.
some details,
I doubleclick the installation exe file. It shows a dialog saying "update has stopped working" with two options, "debug" and "close program". After I click "close program", another dialog shows up and says "Installation has failed" and a few other texts telling me to check the setup log for more info or contact the author. I've also tried run as administrator. Nothing changes.

I downloaded visual studio code a while ago but was never able to open it. When I open the app, I get the error "unable to write program user data". When I run as administrator, a window opens briefly before closing again. When I try to uninstall the program, I get error 5, "unable to create a temporary file. Setup aborted."
I have tried to create new TEMP and TMP directories but it made no difference.
This is on windows 11, the x64 bit version of vscode.
I have installed and used the same version of Visual Studio Code on a previous device (with windows 10 however) and never had any issues.
If you are not allowed to write data.
It means you do not have the necessary permissions for the directories. I see you tried already to run as ADM.
Try to check if your user account got the necessary permissions to write in the directories that you want. In the error message, maybe it shows the directory in question, if not, try first the VSC directories or the PROJECT directory. See below:
To do this, navigate to the directories specified (Or project directory) in the error message and right-click on them. Select "Properties" and then go to the "Security" tab. Make sure that your user account is listed and has the "Full control" permission.
You can also try to reset the settings for VSCode, by running the command Code --reset-settings in the command prompt.
I installed Visual Studio Code 32 bit version (1.71.1) on a Windows 7 machine. I checked the box that said to launch it after I click Finish. The "wait" mouse cursor showed for a second or two, then nothing.
I tried double clicking the desktop icon with the same results. No error message. Not indication that it attempted to start. I did change the desktop icon to "Run as administrator" and that got me the prompt to allow changes to the system, but again, nothing comes up.
Any idea of what is going on? Is there a specific .NET version I need to have?
I am using MobaXterm Personal Edition v21.2 Build 4642 to access a remote workbench for educational purposes. The workbench has a Linux machine, and I run STM32CubeIDE to program a development board connected to the remote machine. When I create a new project, the wizard works OK, until it tries to open the ".ioc" file. A "progress information" (thi sis the window bar title) shows up, saying "Initializing Device Configuration Tool...". The progress bar keeps moving back and forth, but then the program looks like if it is stuck at this point.
If I kill the process and restart the IDE, I can see that the ".ioc" file is created. It means that the wizard is working. Then, if I try to open this file, I get stuck in the same way.
When I logged in locally at the workbench machine and used the IDE, it worked without problems. I also connected remotely to the workbench using another linux machine and "pure" (command prompt) ssh. The IDE also worked nicely, which gives me a hint that the problem happens when MobaXterm has to close that "progress information" window and open the "Device configuration tool" window.
Any hints on how to fix this problem?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I forgot to mention, the remote machine runs Linux Ubuntu 20.04 with Gnome GUI.
When I install an java/swing application built with Install4j on Windows 10, it gets installed under default folder C:\Program Files(x86)\MyApp folder but when I try to launch by doing double click on Launcher then it gives an error dialogue with permission issue message :"Windows can not access the specified device, path or file. You may not have appropriate permission to access them". When I launch the same by doing a right click on launcher and then choosing the option "Run as administrator" then it launches fine. I checked the permission on the launcher file for the user I logged in and it was there. Kindly suggest me how to go about this. Is this an user configuration issue on the Windows 10 machine or something else. This problem has been seen recently.
I tried to set up a Windows Developer license on my computer, but it fails.
I am running Visual Studio 2012.
When I click Project -> Store -> "Acquire Developer License" It gives me an info dialog and says, "If you agree to these terms and want to install a developer license, click 'I agree'. The 'I agree' button has a Windows admin shield.
When I click that 'I agree' button and wait nothing happens.
My next attempt was to do this from the command line, so I brought up PowerShell and typed:
Show-WindowsDeveloperLicenseRegistration
And I get:
Show-WindowsDeveloperLicenseRegistration : You need administrator
privileges to acquire or remove a developer license.
So I right click Windows PowerShell and click "Run As Administrator" and wait ... and wait ... nothing happens.
I'm getting the feeling the Windows Store is not ready for prime time.
Apparently I don't restart Windows 8 frequently enough, which #Ken helped me figure out.
Restarting fixed it.
Getting the license from VS was easy once I was able to run it as administrator.
