Issue seems to be when I open ISO file as a disk image and instal directly from that ISO file.
Solution: You need to extract all the files within ISO file to your hard drive using any archive extractor (7z or winrar), once extracted right click to setup.exe then "Run as Administrator". That worked for me.
Hope that helps

Hi,

 

To install the application on your computer, administrator permission is needed one time and that too only if your system is configured in a way to block installations without admin permissions. 

 

Please check that you provide the permission on launch of installer.
