Error 2203, cant install PoE from isntaller.

I get this error code when trying to install POE.

I assumed from a little research that it has something to do with permissions. I have full ownership of my hard drives and all subfolders.

So Any other idea what I can do to install this game?
are you sure %temp% is set right and you have full permissions? did you try running the installer as Admin? (right-click the MSI file and choose Run As Administrator)
Also run services.msc and make sure the Windows Installer service is not disabled.

AH I just changed my temp folders to a mechanical hdd because its a fresh install on my SSD. This may have something to do with it.
I changed my temp folder location back to my C:temp files but still cant get it to install, error 2203

also I checked under permissions and it says I have full control of C drive, I tried to just uncheck and recheck full control and it just says access denied on every folder, want let me change any permissions.

Not sure what to do at this point.

Any help would be great.
Ok so i got it working by turning off UAC completely and rebooting. I suppose I will turn it back on after the install is done. Very weird.
UAC does some strange things my friend.

Good luck.
