Running UAV Commander on Vista

Problem:

If you wish to install UAV Commander, you can take one of two options:

(1) If you are familiar with command line arguments, load a command prompt, navigate to your CD-ROM root, and type "setup.exe -silent" as this will install UAV Commander at its default location in your Program Files\UAVCommander directory, or

(2) Navigate to your CD-ROM drive, right click on your setup.exe file, and select "create shortcut" to be placed on your desktop. Right click on the shortcut, select properties, and add " -silent" following setup.exe.

Problem:

When loading UAVCommander.exe, you get the following message: "Exception EFCreateError in module UAVCommander.exe at 00009EDE. Cannot create file C:\Windows\Temp\WBCS.bat.
