While installing MiKTeX this error is coming:




Permission denied: path="C/program Files/MiKTeX 2.9doc/bibitex/apalike/apalike.doc




My OS version is Windows 7 Ultimate and I downloaded complete MiKTeX files from http://miktex.org using 64bit net installer option.



Then, during installation, it is showing this error. (Earlier I had installed MiKTeX and then deleted all files related to it, since it was not possible to uninstall it completely.)



Please help me to resolve this problem.

There are several errors here.



First: a path for windows 64 bit has to look like c:Program FilesMiKTeX 2.9docbibtexapalikeapalike.doc and not yours path="C/program Files/MiKTeX 2.9doc/bibitex/apalike/apalike.doc. you missed : and mixed and /.



In LaTeX it could be that the path is printed with the linux path delimiter /. But if there is a mixing of both, that is an error, usually caused by manual typing an path ...



Second: where does your cited bibitex comes from? I guess a typo? I corrected it above to bibtex ...



Third: You did not tell which MiKTeX version you installed. Please add this information to your question.



Because there are some informations missing, I can only guess. Please proof and report the result.



For me it seems you used a wrong typed path inserted for the MiKTeX installer.



Check the resulting installation log file and report the result.

  • windows takes forward/backward slashes mixed or not as folder sep since the beginning. MiKTeX does this uncommon thing to report/log mixed slashes. bibitex leads to believe it was a manually typed path in this question. The missing : would not have lead to this error, only to installation to an unwanted place/path. An invalid path would have stopped installation from the start but the OP said "during installation". I suppose MiKTeX is 2.9 (from path), likely the latest (from "I downloaded"). When installation stops at doc, dll, exe or other win "goodies", the AV is the main suspect.
