I didn't notice you'd posted a link, thanks. I'll check it out.
I get the error no matter what I'm installing, all the latest errors have come from installing Sonar plugins. Everything goes fine, even if the installation needs C++ but right at the end, when it tries to write an entry to the Start Menu the error pops up.
Whatever I was installing gets installed properly, it's only the Start Menu that's giving me grief. I hardly ever start a program from there so it's not the end of the world but I'd prefer to have access.
BTW: I'm on Win 7 and the article is for 10 - but I can see how most of the solutions would work on both.
