SQL Server Setup Error I'm getting the following error at the very end of SQL Server 2016 setup.


  Updating permission setting for file 'Local Machine' failed.  Principal 'SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog\Appliaction\DatabaseMail' was tried to be added to the file permission setting.  The file permission setting was supposed to be set to 'account name'.


It seems like a permissions issue.  Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Thanks for the help.  I found out it was a HIPS (Host Intrusion Protection System) blocking the registry entries.  Once I disabled it, the installation completed successfully.  Thanks again.
