Probably you're trying to save Calibre in a folder where you don't have access to. What is the source you're downloading Calibre from? I'd stick to the original source. Go to their website and save it in Downloads or Desktop.

DO NOT Install using AS Administrator.
You only need Admin rights (UAC will as if it is OK). Install as a Normal USER Do a normal Download from the official site: doubleclick to Install: OK when UAC kicks in: (most folk accept the default location) |
