Hi Tom, Hi, I contacted you a few weeks ago re: an error message I was receiving in trying to install Chimera X onto a Windows 10 PC laptop. Thank you again for your help with determining that the error message I received had to do with the antivirus software interfering with the install. In talking with my IT specialist, there's no way for us to disable the antivirus software to get the install to complete. So, do you know if there might another way to get the install to complete? I was able to install an older version of Chimera on that computer, so, is there a possile workaround for Chimera X?

It is not a ChimeraX issue. Good luck. https://www.thewindowsclub.com/ipersistfile-save-failed-error Tom On Jul 14, 2021, at 10:17 AM, Alice Chen via Chimera-users <chimera-users@cgl.ucsf.edu> wrote: Hi Tom,Please see below the email trail. I had my IT specialist try to install ChimeraX again, and the same thing happened: it ran through the install process (watched the progress bar), and at the very end, the error message attached in screen cap format appeared. I had already had this software program approved to install from our IT head, so, I'm not sure what to do at this point.

What step is the installer dialog showing before it fails?

When my IT specialist tried to install it, it would run the install program but at the very end the install would fail. We were able to install the old non-X version of Chimera. Is there something we should/can do to check, settings-wise?
