I use Bitdefender. I will check the logs now as best I can to see if there is an issue.

Attached is my DXDiag. Also, every time I try to run the upgrade to version 1.34, it says Windows cannot access specified device, path or file. It says I may not have appropriate permissions to access the item. I do hit "Run as administrator" when trying to get the update to work.

My version is 1.24 (?) and I cannot get any of the DL'd updates to actually run. Need some help here!
