    localhost unable to install packages

    I am running umbraco locally on my Windows 10 machine I have tried to install packages such as Articulate but when I press Install package it just redirects me back to the packages page. I have also tried to install from a local file by clicking "Install Local" and dragging the file in and this redirects be back to the packages page without installing.

    I have tried the latest version of umbraco 7.7 and also installed 7.5 and still getting the same results.

    My Visual Studio is 2015 and my database is MS SQL 2014

    Hey Sebastian, welcome to Umbraco!

    What browser are you using, have you tried a different one? Could you check the logs in websiteroot/App_Data/Logs to see if anything shows up around the time you try to install a package?

    I have found that I can install the packages on another computer. I believe it to be the network I am on at work is the course of the issue. I worked on a computer that had more privileges and it worked. It might have been because not be able to write to a particular location.

    I know in IIS I have to give security permissions to user IIS_IUSERS in the website folder. In order to get the website working.
