I used that as well....didn't work. I keep getting a message saying it was unable to create the directory. Ran my computer in safe mode, etc. Nothing has worked. Even their tech support seems stumped.

Unable to create directory usually means a problem with permissions. What version of Windows are you running?

Roger, I agree that it appears to be a permissions issue. I can’t personally vouch for the procedure but take a look at this solution: https://windowsforum.com/threads/error-5-acces-denied-unable-to-create-directory.83923/

This is a generic response but....
By and large my eight Mac years after leaving decades of Windows has been hassle free — nearly seamless; however the few issues I’ve had have been nearly all with permissions. I’d check the Izotope folders and insure that your “home name” has read/write for all of them. I have encountered apps that unbeknownst to me altered permissions in folders that did not “belong” to them.
FWIW,

I will agree with Bud on the folder permissions. Might try this:
Change permissions for files, folders, or disks on Mac
On your Mac, select a disk, folder, or file, then choose File > Get Info.
If the information in Sharing & Permissions isn't visible, click the disclosure triangle.
Click the lock icon to unlock it.
Enter an administrator name and password.
I have not had this problem myself on my Mac's and I have Ozone 8 advanced on mine but I am waiting a bit on version 9 because of Catalina coming out this month. I will install it on my PC for right now.

So for whatever reasons, it won't let me change the permissions....even as the administrator. I suspect that's the problem, but not being able to edit it to "read & write" is confounding. Looks as though somehow the "library" folder now has read & write only for "system" and it won't let me change it. This stuff gets over my head fairly quickly, any suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

Upgraded to Ozone9 Advanced and Neutron3 yesterday. Been an isotope user for years, and pretty well depend on it.

After opening the info dialog for the folder are you clicking on the “padlock” and entering your admin name and password?

Yes, I click on the padlock and enter my password. I get a message saying I don't have "permission" to make that change. And yes I'm logged in as administrator, the issue seems to be that only "system" has read & write privileges.

I was poking around looking for the best upgrade deal for Ozone 9 Advanced and pulled the trigger on a deal at JRRshop.com. They have a cross grade from ANY PAID IZOTOPE PRODUCT for $339.15. I had to read the details several times to make sure I was reading it correctly. For $339.15 you get the following in the Izotope Music Production Suite 3:
Ozone 9 Advance
Nectar 3
Neutron 3 Advanced
Vocal Synth 2
Rx 7 Standard
Insight 2
R4
Nimbus
That’s $2,442.00 worth of software for $339.00
JRRshop.com lists their price as $399.00 and you get a $59.85 discount once you put it you checkout cart.

I picked up Music Production Suite 3 as well. Enjoying it. I just had Ozone/Neutron before. I played with RX-7 a little bit and like it. Reminds me of my Adobe Audition days a little.

Somebody paying nearly $2500 for that would likely also walk into a car dealership and pay sticker price  Bud

Does the JRRshop.com Izotope Music Production Suite 3 upgrade also include the 12 month subscription to Groove3. (Both Izotope and Pluginboutique offer the upgrade with the Groove3 subscription)
