Running win 7 64bit. When running the updater I just get "Error writing -1 bytes...etc" Tried changing the User account control settings but to no avail. Any other solutions out there?

Your issue sounds like what I had last night. If you disabled the usage controls and that didn't fix your issue

I saw this on cityofheroes.wikia.com, tried this myself and didn't work but it might for you.

At this point, you might get a dialog box stating Error opening file CohUpdater.exe. You may be out of disk space or you may be trying to install to a location where you have insufficient permissions. If this happens to you, do not close the updater or answer the dialog box. Open an Explorer window and go to the CohTest folder you created; inside, you will find a file named CohUpdater.exe. You must rename this file to something else; anything at all will do. Once the file is renamed, go back to the updater and click OK to the error message. The updater will succesfully complete and copy itself to the original location, so you don't need to worry about the renamed file anymore. You can safely delete it.
