iCloud Control Panel will not install! What do I need to do?

I have tried running the installer but it fails with the following error message:


"Could not update the ini file C:\Windows\system32\mapisvc.inf."


What is going wrong & what do I need to do to install iCloud Control Panel?


N.B. I am using a laptop with Windows Vista installed, with Service Pack 2. I have also installed ALL updates.


Does it have anything to do with the fact I don't use MSOffice?


Thanks for your help

1. You need to disable the User Account Control (AUC) in Windows control pannels, otherwise next steps may not work.

2. You need to locate the file, right click it and select properties - security - advanced - owner tab; click on edit and select your username (the current Windows account), press ok.

3. Then within the security tab, select your user account and grant the full control to yourself (first box needs to be ticked). Press ok.


Then try the installation again. This worked for me.
