    Default Delet file failed; code 5

    I was updating my Search and Destroy - got to the install and received the following message:

    C:\ProgramFiles\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Plugins\TCPIPAddress.dll
    An error occurred while trying to replace existing file
    Delete file failed: code 5
    Access is denied

    I clicked on "Retry" a number of times and kept getting the same message. I wanted to "Ignore" but this was not recommended.

    Thanks for any help

    Hello,

    Please uninstall Spybot - Search & Destroy according to the following link:

    Then make a fresh install of Spybot - Search & Destroy 1.6.2.
    You will find links to several download locations on our website:

    Or choose the direct installation file.
