[Solved]Updater.exe automatically deletes itself
Yesterday it was working fine, was the first time I used it.
Today when I was gonna use it again, I couldn't find the updater.exe file, so I decided to download it again.
I kept getting errors when trying to download it, Failed - Insufficient privileges. Tried again and again, tried saving in different folders and locations, tried using Opera instead of Chrome, Tried running chrome & opera as administrator etc, nothing worked. Restarted my computer and then it worked, managed to download the file. I started it and then after a few seconds of installing it closed itself. Then it deleted itself. Tried to download again and all the same previous errors happened with insufficient privileges. Disabled firewall and completely turned off antivirus, still nothing and had to restart again to be able to download it. But the same thing happened. I've restarted and downloaded 4 times now, even tried copying it to 5 different locations before opening the updater.exe but same thing happens, all the copies of the updater.exe gets deleted by itself.
Anyone have a clue?
edit: wording may be a bit bad: By deleting itself I don't mean that the updater.exe is doing the deleting, but _something_ is automatically deleting it from my computer.
