I think a Windows update has changed permissions in the Programs folder.
A couple of days ago I could install mzp after mzp and today I could not.
I manually gave myself permissions in the Autodesk folder.
You do not have administrator rights
The reason is that you do not have Administrator permissions to make any changes to the 3ds max root folder.
Before installing, make sure that you have the necessary Administrative rights to make changes to the 3ds max root folder or contact your Administrator for help.
