SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to install Windows 98, you may receive the following error
message when Setup attempts to copy the Chkdsk.exe file:
Setup Error # 5, Access is denied
CAUSE
This behavior can occur if RSE Software Magic Folders is installed on your
computer.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
- Click Skip File to allow Setup to continue without copying the
Chkdsk.exe file.
- After Setup has finished, enable access to the Chkdsk.exe file in Magic
Folders. To do this, in Magic Folders, click Temporarily Enabling Chkdsk
Access on the Utilities menu.
- Extract a new copy of the Chkdsk.exe file using the System File Checker
tool. To start the System File Checker tool, click Start, click Run,
type sfc.exe in the Open box, and then click
OK.
For information about how to use the System File Checker tool to extract
a file, click Start, click Help, click the Index tab, type system file,
double-click the "System File Checker" topic,
click "To extract system files from your installation disks," and then
click Display.
MORE INFORMATION
Because Magic Folders hides files and folders from the operating system,
you should not run Chkdsk while Magic Folders is running on your computer.
Chkdsk is unable to recognize files and folders hidden by Magic Folders and
may incorrectly report them as errors. If you repair these errors, the
files and folders hidden by Magic Folders may be damaged during the repair
process.
Use ScanDisk if you need to use a disk utility. ScanDisk can safely find
and repair disk problems while Magic Folders is running.
