Again once you double-click on either of the two install shield files you're presented with a screen titled "Please enter the password" It's not a windows UAC issue (I know the windows user password as I'm the admin on this workstation), it's not a MEGA drive access issue (I know my MEGA Password clearly as I'm the one that put it up in the cloud in the first place); the issue here is the creator of these installers has password locked them and I don't know the password (the author refuses to sell me the programs in question even if I'm willing to pay and they just won't give it to me so right now I'm at a standstill). I really am trying to be as helpful as I reasonably can (without coming off as rude or condescending) here in accounting for the fact that not everyone is a native English speaker (heck... even me who was raised up speaking the language and its the only language I know has trouble with it sometimes so, no worries)

I really don't know how much more direct I can be here. Should you have any further inquiries regarding this, please feel free to reach out to me or reply to this thread.

Sorry, this an encrypted compiled installer package and there is no easy way to get the password or get around it.
