Its not worked for me. The Analytics_{guid} folder getting generated each time the creation of search service application called. I am using standalone server without any AD and I am using windows administrator account as SPManaged account. Also i have shared the analytcs folder with 'WSS_Admin_WPG' group with full control(even tried full control to Everyone group), still facing the same issue. Is any thing is missed from my side?Your advice will help me a lot, Thanks!

I tried to install SharePoint Foundation 2013 that I've downloaded yesterday. After hours of searching for the "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office Servers" folder, I found the same folder but with different name, which was "C:\Program Files\Windows Office Servers".
