I've tried to install TextPad 6 (German) and starting the msi-file starts fine, but after accepting the license and entering the installation path (left as default), it says "Read error when accessing TextPad 6.msi. Do you have rights to access this file?" (in German: Fehler beim Lesen der Datei: D ...

Robert, the first steps are always a bit hard, but keep faithful. Java is not so complicated.
