Sounds like a windows defender or something blocking binary access to the ProgramData folder. Try moving the installer to for instance a temp folder in the root of C. Assuming this is a manual install. Or temporarily disable the AV / exclude that folder path

I’m running the install from the console on the Commcell Server > Right click > upgrade software

 

I’ve done this many times before this upgrade without incident.

Ah ok, then moving the installer is not an option.

But still, something is blocking access, do you have an anti virus/malware installed? If so can you test with that disabled?

Also are the Commvault services running under local system account or a different account? If different, check the ACL on the folder to see if full controll is available for that user.
