What software does this involve?  What is the complete error message that you see?  What are your system specifications?

Hi marks93562350,

As you get the error message Host-elevationFail, please make sure that you have administrator rights to install the application.

Try right clicking on the install file and select "Run as administrator".

Install the application from here: Download Pro or Standard versions of Acrobat DC, XI, or X

If that does not work, try to run the cleaner tool Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs

Restart your system and then install the application.

Let us know if that helps.

Regards,

Meenakshi
