windows 8 iso - you don't have permission to mount the file

[News Bot]

I just upgraded my win7 Pro x64 desktop to Win8 Pro x64. Upgrade was surprisingly smooth.

Now it would be nice to see some of the new features actually work!!

I try to double click or use disk image tools to mount ANY iso file (local or on network), and all I get is a messagebox ..

Title: Couldn't Mount File

Message: You don't have permission to mount the file

Buttons: OK

I am the domain admin and local admin for the machine.

I tried running Explorer.exe as Administrator.

No difference.

That's a handy feature?

Help?

Other handy feature so far today is trying to connect the (%!#@# metro) Mail app to my Exchange 2003 account. Not possible apparently. Works in Outlook 2010 and Windows Phone 7, but not Mail.

So far, this is another Vista.
