Anyone know anything about the "Faro" installation during download?

Hi. I'm trying to install AutoCAD 2012, but it won't completely download. When I look at my log file, it says something about the Faro needing to be rebooted. I've restarted my computer multiple times, but it still says the same when I retry to install AutoCAD. Does anyone know where I can manually install Faro? I did this for .NET and Directx and the reboot went away. I'm hoping Faro is the problem. If anyone has any other suggestions, please help!

Go to Control Panel and remove the Faro junk, then reinstall Autocad.

I uninstalled Faro and restarted my computer. I tried reinstalling AutoCAD, but it still failed. I've gotten rid of all the autodesk programs and tried installing AutoCAD 2012, but that still didn't work. I don't know what else to do.

Go to Windows and search for FaroSDK.log (In Temp Folder) delete it.

Clean out everything in the Temp Folder

Try install Acad again.

Thank you so much! I deleted everything out of the Windows Temp folder as well as the Local Temp folder. I restarted my laptop and tried reinstalling AutoCAD 2012 and it worked!
