error installing ETS (enthought tool suite) standard plugin

[GoogleCodeExporter]

my problem is that i cannot get a successful installation of the ETS plugin on 
my Windows7 machine.

the installer works until about 80% and then fails because it is unable to 
write a particular file, the problem seems obvious that it is trying to write 
the file:
"\Enthought Tool Suite\License.txt" (no drive letter prefix)

instead of what it should be:
"C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\EnthoughtToolSuite\License.txt"

clicking ignore results in all susequent files having the same problem, so i 
end up with a partial install.

i attach the install file here (see last line), can anyone confirm that the 
installer for the ETS module is sane ?

link to the ETS plugin is this one:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/python-xy/files/plugins/EnthoughtToolSuite-4.4.
1-6_py27.exe

cheers and thanks

4.4.1-10

It appears you're missing a registry key - HKLM\Software\Python(x,y)\DocPath .

Please re-install python(x,y) and then install the updated packages.
