Typically this happens on newer Windows operating system (newer than XP) if you have the game installed in Program Files (and similar) folders. You can safely copy the whole game to some other folder you create (c:\game\il2) folder for example, cause the game does not rely on any registr settings.
The installer is just an archive of files; no messing with registry or anything like that.
Thanks Microwave,always had problems with rar files...it did show it was downloading to the right folder , guess it was not...your first suggestion worked...downloaded to a new folder and copy and paste. You the man...thanks again

Note...why will it not have permission when all the other updates installed OK
