Issue Details

I am trying to install an NI driver, but during the installation I receive the following message:

There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.

Solution

Turn off any anti-virus software you have on your computer.
Disable any firewall that is preventing the software to install.
Use the computer's administrator session and credentials when installing.
Try running the installer with the Run as Administrator mode, accessible by right clicking on the setup.exe file.

If these steps are unsuccessful in resolving your error, please contact NI Support.

Additional Information

This error is often related to the installer being blocked to add or modify necessary registry keys in the operating system. Often caused by the anti-virus software on your computer, or by not having the required administrator permissions to do so. Once the installer completes, you can safely enable the anti-virus software.

You can also encounter this error when trying to install software on a virtual machine that does not have administrator privileges on the host operating system underlying the virtual machine. Make sure that your virtual operating system has administrator privileges to make edits to registry files owned by the host operating system.

Causes:

Missing path in the environment variable.
Corrupted Installer.
Corrupted Registries entry.
Antivirus is conflicting with the install.

Solution:

In order to fix the issue check the Windows environment variable PATH. If "C:\Windows\system32" is missing, add it by doing the following:

From the Windows search command on the Task Bar, start typing environment.
When located, choose the option "Edit the system environment variables" to display the "System Properties" dialog.
Choose "Environment Variables...".
The PATH variable will exist in the User variables list and System variables (See Figure 1).
Edit each one to see if "C:\Windows\system32" exists (See Figure 2).
Add the folder name to the system variables if it is missing from both lists.
Click OK to close all dialogs.
Repeat the installation.

Figure 1: The PATH variable exists for the user and system variables. Each list may contain different entries.

Figure 2: Confirm that C:\Windows\system32 exists in one of the lists. Note that "C:\Windows" may be represented as %SystemRoot% as shown here (to indicate where Windows is installed).

If the above solution should not work, try also:

Check to see if software actually did install and is experincing issue as per: Nastran button does not appear on the Environment tab in Inventor.
Re-download affected from the Autodesk Account by using Browser Download method.
Perform a clean uninstall Autodesk software.
Make sure these steps are followed: Best practice for installing Autodesk Products.
Disable antivirus. Refer to: Autodesk Licensing Service: Known Conflicting Applications.
