The setup wizard isn't letting me install; it says inventor is already installed

[colinc12]

During my initial setup, I was installing to an external hard drive and halfway through the inventor installation, it crashed and died.... My computer registered as installing inventor, so when I went back into the wizard, it still said that inventor was already installed. I was able to download everything else, but I need inventor desperately. How can I get the wizard to acknowledge that I do not have inventor installed?

Installing to a removable device probably isn't a good idea.  But in any case, try one of these solutions:

For all other installation problems consider using the Microsoft Installer Clean Up Utility. For more information on this program, please my forum post here:
