Okay. That's handy to know. We have a normal user, and UNC is kicking in correctly.
Do you normally have permission to install software on this work PC? When was the last time you tried installing something?
What, exactly, does it say on the screen alongside "C:\Users\ROBERT~1.BEL\AppData\Local\Temp\nsg6B35.tmp\modern-header.bmp" ?
Just checking - you did delete EVERYTHING in that %TEMP% folder when I suggested it above?
If you go into your temp folder, can you delete that nsg6B35.tmp folder and its contents? Make sure you try deleting it after you have rebooted but before clicking on the KODI installer.

I usually always am able to add any program I want. I am an admin on the cpu as well.
I try and open KODI and it has a red x and says "Error opening file for writing"
"C:\Users\ROBERT~1.BEL\AppData\Local\Temp\nsg6B35.tmp\modern-header.bmp"
click abort to stop the installation
retry to try again
ignore to skip this file
is there ways of posting pics here?

Something that IDK might help is that someone intended to try and restore this computer to an earlier date because it was running a little slow but it was unsuccessful Idk if that helps but I did have an unsuccessful try at restoring to a previous time

I left the folder open and when I try and install KODI a new folder comes out but it still doesnt let KODI install it gives me the same error.
I also downloaded the VLC video installer and that installed with no problems.

I might just have to do that. I just dont want to tell them why they need to check my computer because I should be working not streaming lol
I think the anti virus program I have is malwarebytes I tried both of those kodi and neither were successful

Anti-virus is unlikely to be Malwarebytes. Usually that is used as a secondary malware scanner. There will be some other icon down there by the clock doing the anti-virus job. And if you have a big IT department then I guess that AV will be pretty locked down to stop the staff fiddling with it.
It is certainly a puzzle this one. There must be some IT Policy in place otherwise I can't see what is stopping it from unpacking to the temp folder. Have a look around for some other program that is more work related that also stumbles with its installer as I am pretty sure this isn't just a KODI thing.
As to the issue of streaming at work... if your IT guys are any good they would soon notice all that extra data flooding in your direction and come over to "have a word".

Kasperky I believe is the anti virus.
The weird this is that I had to download TVMC and that works for me.
I need a way of hiding that extra data lol
