[RESOLVED] Firefox package deployment: [Error 5] Access denied

Good morning,
When deploying my Firefox.exe package, I encountered the error message [Error 5] Access denied in the console. There were no problems during local installation.

At first I thought my silentflag was faulty, but after some research it seems to be correct.
For your information, I am using Windows 10 on all my VMs and I have the latest version of WAPT.

The first thing that comes to mind is an antivirus issue. Could you check the logs on that end?

Is your Firefox package version 18.5?
The binary is named "Firefox installer.exe".
The package clearly didn't originate from us.
Can you tell us where the file came from?
Can you also provide your setup.py file?

Hello and thank you for your replies
The file comes from the official Firefox website.
Here is the setup.py file

As for the antivirus, I'm going to uninstall Office Scan and test it

You're apparently using Firefox's auto-downloader; the installer isn't in the .exe file but downloads Firefox from the internet every time you change it.
Use this one instead:
