I am trying to install update to LR Classic and I keep getting error code 127 - unable to extract files.  Retry does not help, and I don't know how to do the following suggested for my Mac running Catalin 10.15.1

Do the following:

  • Check permission on adobetemp folder located at [Win] <system drive>/adobetemp or [macOS] <system drive>\adobetemp.
  • Disable the antivirus on your system

 

Suggestions and help appreciated!

I did exactly as you suggested and also shutdown computer (again) and
upgraded operating system. That seems to have resolved the issue without
signing into the new account I created. All appears to be ok now.

Thank you,
Carol
