Thanks in advance for your help! Sorry but I gave up last night after trying for a few hours.

The message is:

"Another installation is in progress. You must complete that installation before continuing this one."

The button options are RETRY or cancel. Retry gets me the same message.

There was no other installation in process. I did a defrag, cleared the cache, updated the operating system (Windows 10 64-bit) and then rebooted a few times. I also checked to be sure that I had enough space (I do - lots of space).

Thanks again. (Crossing my fingers that you can help.)

I ended up installing it on my husband's laptop but would prefer it on mine.

If your were trying to install on a Windows 10 machine, I am going to suggest these steps below. I think you might be having an issue other users have experienced with installing when using Windows 10.

Type "environment" in the windows search bar.
This will bring up "Edit the System Environment Variables" as a match.
Clicking on it takes you to the "Advanced" tab of a dialog box titled "System Properties."
Near the bottom of the dialog box, click on the pushbutton labeled "Environment Variables...".
This brings up a separate dialog box that shows the current values for user environment variables at the top and system variables at the bottom. In the list of user environment variables, you should see both TEMP and TMP, and their current values.
Click on each, then click on the "Edit..." pushbutton.
This brings up another dialog box in which you can change the "Variable value" to "C:\Temp" (be sure to change the variable value, not the variable name).
This folder must, of course, exist for this step to work properly.
OK out of all the dialog boxes and retry the install.
Environment variable changes take effect immediately, so if this is the only change you make, it's not necessary to reboot.
