Problems I have solved (or not) and good ideas I've found

Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

Fisrt check the permissions.  Yes, I have full control, all the boxes are ticked.

I’ve had this problem before, but now I have a hotfix that won’t install, and I need it, so have to run it.

This article http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrclients/thread/1b903da5-2740-440b-a1f1-de354a5c310e/ suggests that you should uninstall the Internet Explorer Enhance Security component.  Well, its sometime necessary, but is to be avoided.

 

I managed to run the hotfix by copying it to the root of C: and typing the name into the command prompt.
