[SOLVED] Installation failure of Client 6.10.36 on a Windows 2003 server

Hi all,
I can't install Boinc Client 6.10.36 on a Windows 2003 R2 SP2 server. During installation a blocking pop-up appears: "Failed to add user to the 'boinc_admins' group (Administrator). Then the installation is interrupted.
I open the console and the user Admisitrator is currently in group 'boinc_admins', and I use this user to install the client.

Can anyone help me?

Cheers,
sebastiano

Hello sebastiano.camerin,

Searching for group AND Administrator, I find:

blushing Yes, I try to solve technical problems by searching for SekeRob's posts. At least, that is how it seems to work out.

Ehi Lawrence! It works! The installation of 5.10.45 was fine!

Thank you so much for your support!

Cheers! peace
