Turn UAC back on to install Reader. Turning off UAC doesn't just give you access to all files and folders (eg. Temp file). I was unable to install Reader with UAC off.

Ah, alright then I stand corrected.

1. Download the Adobe Reader installer from the Adobe website. When you are prompted to run or save the file, choose save. Save the file to your desktop.
2. On the Desktop, right-click the AdbeRdr80_en_US file and then choose Properties.
3. Click the Compatibility tab.
4. Under Compatibility Mode, check Run this program in compatibility mode for: and choose Windows XP (Service Pack 2) from the drop down list.
5. Click Apply, then click OK to close the Properties window
6. Double-click the AdbeRdr80_en_US file and continue with the installation.

 

Also in order to turn OFF , UAC Perform these steps

 

1. Launch MSCONFIG by from the Run menu.

2. Click on the Tools tab. Scroll down till you find "Disable UAP" (this should probably change to UAC in next Vista beta builds and in the RTM version). Click on that line

   1. Press the Launch button.

   2. A CMD window will open. When the command is done, you can close the window.

   3. Close MSCONFIG. You need to reboot the computer for changes to apply.

      Note that you can re-enable UAC by selecting the "Enable UAP" line and then clicking on the Launch button.
