Hello, on trying to install the version 1.14.5.29465 (64 bit), the following error is shown:

TortoiseSVN_Installer_Error.png

For me it seems that this is an error code from the MSI installer, but the error code "1101" is not on there error list.

Any idea how to solve this?

PS: I am forced by our company IT to stick with this version...

msi error 1101 means "could not open file stream".
So either the user SYSTEM does not have full access to where the msi file is located (so move it to another folder/drive and try again), or a virus scanner blocks access to the msi or one of the files extracted from it.

Vielen Dank! Das Rechteproblem war die Fehlerursache.

Rhetorical question: Why isn't this stated in the error dialog itself, saving (cumulative) hours for the user(s), you, and the mail list readers?
