disable uac and run as admin and try again
Disable the UAC, by going to start > control panel > System and Security > Change User Account Control Settings (top right) and lower to the lowest settings.

or just search for "uac" in the start button and it will bring up the appropriate menu, much faster.

This combined with it's not a fresh install sounds to me like something is corrupted either with the game, your windows install and or both.
