Problem Upgrading to latest version 0.4.119

I just tried to install the new 0.4.119; I currently have the .117. I have an XP. I successfully downloaded the program but during the installation process, I received this error message:

Quote:
Error in action ExecuteAction: Error in action InstallSelectedFiles: error deleting "C:/Program Files/calibre/.B76E8372-F26D-405B-9989-BB3E157939B7._ctypes.pyd": permission denied
Error in action ExecuteAction: Error in action InstallSelectedFiles: error deleting "C:/Program Files/calibre/.B76E8372-F26D-405B-9989-BB3E157939B7._ctypes.pyd": permission denied
while executing
"$obj execute"
(procedure "::InstallJammer::ExecuteActions" line 64)
invoked from within
"::InstallJammer::ExecuteActions $id -when $when"
(procedure "::InstallJammer::RaiseEventHandler" line 79)
invoked from within
"::InstallJammer::RaiseEventHandler .wizard"
(command bound to event)
Now the "Please wait while Setup installs calibre on your computer" pop up window is stuck on the "Cleaning up install . . . " step. The first time this happened I canceled the installation. Of course I went to try and use the program to move a new book to my Sony OR to save newly converted file to disk, both steps failed with errors. Clearly I should have saved the new version into a different folder while I installed it, but I did not. What can I do to fix this now? I'm really illiterate when it comes to programming stuff, so I'd appreciate step by step instructions. Thanks!
