in reply to Can't install PDF::API2 on Windows 10

I use the command cpan PDF::API2 in a DOS window running as administrator

Does it make any difference if you run as user ?

Cheers,
Rob

    Hi Rob,

    I tried installing as my normal self and it worked!!! I will never understand the mysteries of Microsoft. How can a normal user have permissions to do something the administrator can't?

    In any case, that solved my problem. Thanks so much for the suggestion!
