Unable to install Inventor Pro 2014

[tomn222]

Hi,

I have a big problem with Inventor Professional 2014. I choose "install now" but after 3 GB of downloading everything stoped. I mean I had to "force close" the installation procedure. Then I tried to "install now" once more, but I was not able to start installation of Inventor because I have sign that parts of the software are already installed. So I clean the register, manually delete all files connected with Inventor 2014. Then I have rebooted my PC. Finally I have this message over and over again. I can only choose software connected with Inventor but not the Invetor.

Please Help!

PS: Windows 7 64 bit, i7, 16 GB RAM, GTX580, over 100GB free space on hard drive

If the installer is not letting you perform the re-install because it believes the software is already installed most likely there are registry keys left over from a partial install. Please use the microsoft install cleanup fixit tool at the below link

http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall

1.) Click the "Run now" Button in the Fix-it box

2.) Accept the License Agreement

3.) Choose the option "Detect Problems and let me select fixes to apply"

4.) Select "Uninstalling"

5.) When the list of installed programs populates, select the one from the list you are unable to Re-install and then click next and yes

6.) When the tool completes There may be remnants left so please delete the directory where the product was installed
