I am trying to install SIM version 13 rev 1404021 using Administrative priveleges
When i click on Grant button it give me error that " you dont have neccessary permission set".
Also i have given full permission to Network Service,IUSR, IIS_USR and network to the folder
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot
Kindly let me know whate else permission need to be given inorder to run sitecore instance manager succesfully.
It may be caused by bug in SIM that doesn't get actual SQL Server user account (LocalService or custom) and thinks that it is always NetworkService. So work around is to switch your SQL Server service from using LocalService or custom account to NetworkService.
Same context with Alen's answer, but in windows 10.
Use 'Local System account' and tick the 'Allow service to interact with desktop'.
Then, restart the service.
At this point, you don't need to reopen the SIM installation window. You can just click the Grant button and it would work.
Well, for me the issue was that the database user didn't have the dbcreator role so the wizard couldn't create databases in SQL Server.
Open SQL Server Management Studio
Expand Security > Logins
Double-click on the user to open the properties dialog
In Server Roles, check the dbcreator role
Press OK and enjoy

When you downloaded the SIM zip file from Marketplace, did you click "Properties" on the zip file and click the "Unblock" button before unzipping and running it?
I've found in the past that forgetting this step can be the cause of odd security related errors with applications.
I ran across a similar issue I had, but for me root issue was that the wwwroot folder was on a VM/Parallels and that folder was marked "compress" and "archive"
unset that for wwwroot and child items, and then SIM proceeded correctly.

Much as it pains me to do so, I have to run a Windows VM on Google Cloud Platform in order to run some legacy data extraction software on a nightly basis.
It works fine (except the recurring feeling that I am stepping back in time every time I RDP into the VM), except over the holidays when the extract stopped. I checked the update logs and it seemed to be when an automatic Windows Update took place. As such I want to stop these from happening, however I cannot find any way of stopping them!
I own the GCP project and VM, so should have permissions to change any settings I like, does anybody have a clue how to do this please?
You do have the right to do whatever in your VM Windows.
For windows 7
1- Log in to the Windows 7 or Windows 8 guest operating system as an
administrator.
2- Click Start > Control Panel > System and Security > Turn automatic
updating on or off.
3- In the Important updates menu, select Never check for updates.
4- Deselect Give me recommended updates the same way I receive
important updates.
5- Deselect Allow all users to install updates on this computer and
click OK.
For Windows 10
I suugest your to follow the steps provided Here as the windows 10 has a policy of forced updates three option available.
Tracked down the answer! Posting here in case it helps somebody else...

Solution
Open SCONFIG and verify your current Windows Update Settings:
Open a command prompt with Admin permissions.
Type sconfig and press Enter.
NOTE: There may be a short pause as the tool inspects your system.
Option #5 shows the current configuration of your Windows Update settings.

To change your Automatic Update Settings, follow these steps:
From the SCONFIG screen press 5 and then Enter. This will bring up the following options for you to choose from:
(A)utomatic – This will configure your machine to automatically scan, download, install and reboot after applying any updates.
(D)ownloadOnly – This will automatically scan, download and notify the admin if updates need to be installed. This is the default setting on Windows Server 2016.
(M)anual -- This turns Automatic Updates off. Your system will never check for updates.
2. Press the letter specified in the "( )" and press Enter to apply.
3. When the tool applies the configuration you have selected, you will see a message pop-up similar to the one below. Click the OK button to dismiss the message. The tool will refresh the menu and option 5 will now show the new configuration.
I am getting below error while logging in with VMware vSphere Client 5.5
"The type initializer for 'VirtualInfrastructure.Utils.ClientsXml' threw an exception."
Just recently had this. Try to right click the shortcut and "run as administrator". This worked for me.
To avoid having to do this all the time. Set the shortcut to "Run as administrator". Even if a user launches it. I should still start without prompting for an administrator ID.
I got the same problem this morning, don't know what's causing the issue. Vsphere client was working fine last week, only changes was backup by Veeam during the weekend.
My solution is open the website of your ESXi server, click the "Download Vsphere client" link to download the latest version 5.5 client and upgrade the existing client.
Check your disk space and/or file permissions of your temporary directory.
VMWare may be unable to create necessary files in your %temp% directory which 'will' cause the exact error your experiencing.
I had this problem recently, it happened because I had updated the user's TEMP file location in Control Panel - System - Advanced System Settings so TEMP files were stored on e: drive, but the temp folder path on the e: drive did not exist. Creating the correct folder structure on e drive fixed the problem
Yes you need to Run as Administrator, This is due to a Permissions access problem by simply double clicking it, even in an Administrative level profile.
I'm trying to install some packages on Sitecore 6.2 solution. I'm receiving a strange packager error:
“Package generation failed: Root element is missing" . I checked logs and nothing appear.
Sitecore’s packager wasn't able to generate a package.
It appears that in the process of generating the zip, it needs to access the temp folder during the creating process.
I meet this error few times and it doesn't work allways to give access just for AppPoolIdentity.If it's not working give access for role Everyone.
Here you find a nice article about this error .
I think a probable reason for this failure could be that you created package of an item or a number of items, but its template might be missing.
Alternatively, please check that your AppPoolIdentity, (ideally Network Service, to check AppPoolIdentity Name, goto IIS Manager, Application Pools and select the AppPool of your website, and in Action Pane on right side, say Advanced Settings, you will be able to see the Name of Process Model -> Identity) has read-write rights on C:\Windows\Temp directory.
Do let me know after trying the above two things on your solution
Hope this helps!

I need to retrieve list of users/groups who have access to perform volume maintain tasks using WMI objects on remote machine.
What I can do it explicitly is
On the Start menu, click Run. In the Open box, type secpol.msc.
Expand Local Policies.
Select the User Rights Assignment folder. The policies will be displayed in the details pane.
In the pane, double-click Perform Volume Maintenance Tasks.
In properties window, I can see user/group list who have access.
I need to get this exact list using WMI call in my C# application.
In order to get or modify the values of the windows security policy you must access the windows registry. Now to find the exact key which store the values which you are looking for you must check the Group Policy Settings Reference for Windows and Windows Server which contains a excel file with all the group policy settings and the location in the windows registry.
Password Policy, Account lockout policies are a part of secured registry settings. It cannot be read remotely until explicit permissions are given.
FYI that document doesn't actually work fully. Manually editing the values do not actually change the gp setting (still shows not set in gpedit), yet it does restrict the process you are setting. Also, if you manually set the value with gpedit while running procmon, the key it is hitting is not as listed in the document.
i try to install my WebService on Windows-XP,
and i got this error:
The installation of
C:\MyWS\MyWS_Setup.msi
is not permitted due to an error in software restriction policy processing.
The object cannot be trusted
what can be the problem ?
thanks in advance
Run regedit and verify that there are no policy restrictions disabling installer under this key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer]
If there are, just right click on them and delete them. A reboot may be necessary.
The restriction name would be "DisableMsi"
Also, as a test, if you are logging in as Administrator in Safe Mode -- could you try creating a new User Account and giving it Administrative rights and test these issues under the new account in normal mode?
One more thing, just to make sure the account you are having problems with in "normal" mode really has administrative rights, would you right click on the Start tab and see if "open" and "explore" "All Users" is present?
