Error 1606: could not access network location %userprofile%

[jzulueta]

Lately I cannot install any programs. I always get this error message.

Error 1606: could not access network location %userprofile%\\desktop\\

I guess there is something wrong in the registry, but I do not dare touch it. Can anybody help me?

Thanks
