Hmm, looks like another permissions problem. You can try running the game as admin then as a normal user again. If that fails, try navigating to the folder above (C:\ProgramData\FAForever), right-clicking on it, going to 'properties' and finding the option to change file owner to your user account. Details probably depend on specific Windows version, try googling for 'recursive set folder owner' for your windows version.
