Do you do the installation as an Administrator or as an user with Admin rights?

 

My System: Intel i7-8700K - 64GB RAM - NVidia Geforce RTX 3060 - Windows 11 Pro 25H2 -- LR-Classic 15 - Photoshop 27 - Nik Collection 8 - PureRAW 6 - Topaz Photo AI

Then please try the installation from an Administrator account, the account you are using might not have permissions to some folders where this issue occurs.
