I am having the same problem installing Autocad Map3D 2013.

cpu is also trying to find setupdesignreview2013.msi.  Both file are located in my Temp folder???

Hi,

the path in Windows is limited in length. So try to move your installation-files into a folder in a higher hierarchy (e.g. C:\TEMP) and try to start the installer again.

Another options might be to first extract the EXE (at least it's a self-extracting zip that you can unzip manually) and start the setup.exe in it.

Good luck, - alfred -

I know the original post from this thread is a couple of years old, but we just experienced this same issue so I thought I would share the solution (at least what worked here).

Be sure to turn off your anti-virus software prior to running the install.  In our case, Trend was protecting some of the folders required for the install.

I have seen this in the past with other anti-virus software, but this is the first time I have seen it happen with Trend.

Hope it helps!

Great post - that was my problem as well.  My Dad had installed Trend on my laptop.  I guess you can't get a virus if you can't do installs 🙂

+1 on that!

I was installing IDSP 2017 and the same message came up.

Turning off Trend done the trick.
