When I went to try and install Phix I got an error, a certain error prevents this program from being installed, is what the error says.
Ah, if I run the installer by double-clicking on it, it says:
--------------------------- FreeExtractor Error --------------------------- An error prevents this program from continuing: Could not extract the current file. Access is denied. --------------------------- OK ---------------------------
Can you right click on it and select "run as administrator".
Alternatively, use 7-zip (or download the zip and use Windows Explorer) to extract somewhere you don't need admin privileges (ie not C:\Program Files), then run ppw.bat

PS I have also now found a "solution" to this - renaming the download as phix.setup.exe (instead of phix.exe) gives Windows enough of a clue to give the right UAC prompt; future releases will be so named.
Thanks for the tips.
