<noinclude>== Error 1722 workaround ==</noinclude>
Windows UAC (User Account Control) can cause the client installation to fail with a message like the following:

''You must have an administrative privilege to run this tool.''

This happens even when being launched by an `Administrator'.  The WPKG logs show this:

<BLOCKQUOTE>Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.  Action _A9459942_EE79_497A_9080_F39DDA8A7B80, location: C:\Program Files\wpkg\wpkginst.exe, command: --SETTINGSFILE=</BLOCKQUOTE>

The solution is to launch a command window with elevated privileges and use that to start the installer.  Quoting from [http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/wpkg-users/2012-April/008727.html one post of many]:

'''Install'''
# Make shortcut to cmd.exe
# Right click on it and select runas administrator
# "cd" to path where installer is, e.g. <code>cd C:\Users\Myname\Downloads</code>
# Run your msiexec command.
## <code>msiexec /i "WPKG Client 1.3.14-x32.msi"</code>
## For network, enter full path i.e <code>msiexec /i "\\server1\MyShare\WPKG Client 1.3.14-x32.msi"</code>

'''Install Alt'''
# For install across network or localy use "psexec" from Systeminternals with localhost and "-h" parameters, eg. "psexec -h localhost msiexec /le wpkg_error.txt /i WPKG_Client_1.3.14-x64.msi"
