Issue/Introduction:

While installing the Endpoint Agent on a Windows 7 machine you may get :- "Access is denied".

Resolution:

This issue is due to Microsoft User Access Control and can be resolved by lowering down the UAC security level (This requires restart of the machine).

Note :- It is not recommended to keep the UAC level low and can be changed to the previous level once the installation is done.
