System32 is a protected directory on Windows. It's the default directory for Admin command prompt, but you don't need to be Administrator to run this tool.

Try opening CMD.exe as the standard user, make sure you are in a directory under C:\Users[username], then install the tool there (git clone or download as a zip and extract). That should fix the permissions issues.
