I have used Railsinstaller.org to get the latest version and install it onto a windows 8 laptop. Checked version with ruby -v = ruby 1.9.3p392 <2013-02-226-mingw32] and also done rails -- help and this worked to. I have created a directory and ensured i have writing permissions which i do. Now when i try to do "rails new treebook" it starts the bundle and at the end i get the following error:-
Errno::EACCES: Permission denied - C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.3/bin/rake.
An error occurred while installing rake (10.1.0), and Bundler cannot con
Make sure that gem install rake -v '10.1.0'
succeeds before bundling.
So i then do the "gem install rake -v '10.1.0'" and the results follow:-
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Errno::EACCES) Permission denied - C:/RailsInstaller/Ruby1.9.3/bin/rake.bat I have been through the forum here and seen some of the other questions and nothing has solved this. I have also been on the treehouse forum to no avail.
Any advice would be greatly received, also further information available upon request.
Thanks in advance.

Treehouse Guest TeacherHey Adam Sackfield try installing the bundler gem and give it another go:
gem install bundler
That may fix your problem. If not, please drop a line with any error messages you get.
