Hello bleacherbum099

Just to confirm that this is the install file that is not running? Is this correct?

This could be caused by a few reasons, including
1. Microsoft Defender or other anti-virus halting the install process
2. You don't have permission to access the folder.

The exact wording, or even a screenshot of the message would be of more help.

It maybe user error on my part but this is what I'm seeing. program files from maybe a previous version that's not allowing me to re install. 

C/program files x/86
and then it says Abort/Ignore/Skip


on the setup.

Sorry but that is of no help. I don't have enough context.

Please take a screenshot to start off with and post here... https://imgbb.com/ (no account required). Then copy the link back here.

It sounds like an operating system issue, but we will try to assist where we can.

Yeah I'm sorry I'm of little help. Image

I'm bad at this. Hopefully this is a little more help. Yeah It's probably an operating system issue and would like as many as suggestions as you can think of.

Ah, now that shows a lot more information...

That one is beyond my knowledge. Hopefully others will be through soon that recognise the issue.
