Demeter installation
Hi, I'm trying to install Demeter software package on my govt. computer which is under a degree of lock down. I have full admin rights but its still not running. Here is the explanation from IT support. "it wants to install on C:\strawberryfile:///C:\strawberry and the C: drive is locked down here and all our programs need to be installed to C:\programfile:///C:\program files (x86) and when I tried to install there it told me that it didn't like spaces in the directory and I went ahead and install where it wanted and now program will not run due to security " Any suggestions? Thanks for your time.

“it wants to install on C:\strawberry file:///C:%5Cstrawberry and the C: drive is locked down here and all our programs need to be installed to C:\program file:///C:%5Cprogram files (x86) and when I tried to install there it told me that it didn't like spaces in the directory and I went ahead and install where it wanted and now program will not run due to security “

It would be helpful to have a bit more information that "it told me that it didn't like spaces in the directory". It would be helpful to me to see the exact language of the error message. That said, I'll try to find some time today to try installing the package to folder with a space and see what happens for myself.
