ERROR CODE 1603

Anonymous — Mon, 12 Oct 2015 23:48:52 GMT

Hello Autodesk community

I have recently tried to install Revit 2016 on Windows 10. When I first upgraded to Windows 10 there was no issues as I kept my programs from Windows 7, I ran a clean format on Windows 10 to speed up my system. When I tried to install Revit 2016 on the new clean formatted Windows 10 it was constantly failing. on the log files it kept coming up with;

Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable ATL Security Update (x64) Failed Installation aborted, Result=1603

I have tried many attempts to fix the issue such as;

- Replacing the C++ 2005 file by uninstalling it and install the one from the Microsoft website

- Clearing the %TEMP% folder and starting the installation again

- Replacing the existing C++ 2005 file and inserting the one from Microsoft into the setup file before installation

- Turning off the firewall systems and Windows Defender

- Running the install as ADMINISTRATOR (which I had done for all the attempts)

- Uninstalling all the Microsoft Visual C++ files and install them from the Microsoft website one by one

I have been on this for 3 days and have got nowhere with it, I would really appreciate any help
