[mew-win32 03401] Help in installation

[Amol Dharmadhikari]

Hi All,

I am a new member on this mailing list. I have been using mew on linux for many months 
and recently decided switch to the same on win32. However I am running into problems
while installing it on win32. 

I have tried installing it on Windows NT 4 as well as Windows 2000. And I run into the
same problem in both the cases. The installer starts running and suddenly it throws
some error and aborts. Seems like it cannot create a directory and write to it. I am reproducing a section of the mew.log below.

Have anyone of you encountered similar errors? 

Any help will be appreciated. 

Best wishes,
Amol
