During installation of Magix Music Maker free edition an error occurred. The install log sais:

 

$2021-07-16 20:50:12.402|099c:2d74|ERROR||MessageBox: text='Failed to set security descriptor on object C:\Users\Public\Documents\MAGIX\Common\, system error: -2147024891', type=16

 

Actually, the error message said type 1603 at the time.

 

Thanks for your help!!

Hi

Error 1603 can mean something is blocking the installer access to required folders during installation - the most likely cause is your Antivirus - try disabling it while you install the program.

Do note that your computer processor is below the minimum speed recommended for Music Maker and the program may not run smoothly when loaded with several tracks of sound loops and/or instruments.
