Translation of the error message
"C:\Users\XYZ\Downloads\XnViewPortable_2.00.paf.exe
You can't access the device, path or file. You may not have the authorization to access the element."
I even tried installing the file with admninistrator rights but I got the same error.

Broken Temp?
That indicates something broken within the OS. The most common culprit is a broken TEMP directory... either non-existent or messed up permissions. Or your antivirus went haywire and quarantined it.

That's strange. Every other
That's strange. Every other file from PortableApps is working perfectly!
I'm using F-Secure Anti-Virus.

How Far Does It Get?
How far does it get when you run the installer? Have you tried manually scanning with F-Secure and then disabling it and running the installer?

Problem solved!!!
This is really amazing!
After disabling F-Secure installation of XnView functioned alright!
I'd never thought it could be the Anti-Virus software!
Thanks you so much for your help!
