Had BIAB 2022 on my windows pc with not issues. upgraded to 2025. installed with no issues then started to get error messages Can't find Style message which I had to ok before I could get into the program. Contacted support and they told me to uninstall both 2022 and 2025 and reinstall which I have done. When I try to reinstall I get the following message see attachment error code 5...support from PG has been pretty much non existent. Can anyone provide guidance. As of now I have nothing not even my old 2022. Thanks for any support

The error message states you do not have administrative privileges to delete the VSTSynthfont64 file. That is a Windows, not Band-in-a-Box, error message. Windows thinks you are not signed into Windows as an Administrator. You will likely run into a similar error message each time you try to delete some files.

For Windows 10 you can navigate to Windows Security > Account Protection > View Your Account info to verify if you're signed into Windows as Administrator.
