I have not even seen Win8, but try to right click on "AkelPad-4.8.5-x64-setup.exe" and choose "Run as administrator". |

Can you try test version of setup? What messages you have (you can press Ctrl+C when message is shown to copy text of the message to clipboard)? |

Next test:
Open command prompt (cmd.exe). Run commands manually:
| Code: | | takeown.exe /F C:\WINDOWS\notepad.exe |
| Code: | | C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c echo y|cacls.exe C:\WINDOWS\notepad.exe /G "Charles":F |
What console output will be (to copy text from console to clipboard: press right button, choose "Select all" and press right button again)? |

I run those as administrator.
First output :
| Quote: | | Opération réussie : le fichier (ou dossier) : "C:\WINDOWS\notepad.exe" appartient désormais à l’utilisateur "PC-CHARLES\Charles". |
Translation : Operation successfulled : the file "C:/xxxx" is owned by the user "PC-xxx" (it's me)
Second output :
| Quote: | C:\WINDOWS\system32>C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c echo o|cacls.exe C:\WINDOWS\n
otepad.exe /G "Charles":F
Êtes-vous sûr (O/N) ?fichier traité : C:\WINDOWS\notepad.exe
|
file handled : C:\....xxx
Thank you |

Now I see whats happening. Command:
| Code: | | C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c echo y|cacls.exe C:\WINDOWS\notepad.exe /G "Charles":F |
not working for you, because you have prompt "(O/N)", but command send "echo y". You changed command to "echo o" and it start to work. I updated installer to use icacls.exe, if possible. Can you try to install it? If any error happens post a screenshot. |

Exactly ! (Oui = Yes)
I try it right now 
EDIT :
So, the install performed without any warning or error, however it runs automatically notepad showing "The specified pathfile is unknown"
You can see the screenshot : http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2013/48/1385629709-capture.png
I don't get any more information... sorry |

| I think your installer still uses cacls and not icacls |
