To work around this error, create a temporary Windows Temp folder in a new location:
- Using File Explorer, create a new folder with a simple name in the root of the C:\ drive, such as C:\TESTTEMP. Edit the folder permissions to give full control to 'Everyone':
- Right-click the folder and select Properties.
- Choose the Security tab.
- Click Edit to change permissions.
- For each group or user name, select Full control.
- Click OK.
- Using a text editor such as Notepad, create a text file.
- Go to Control Panel > System.
- Click Advanced system settings in the left menu and select the Advanced tab.
- Click Environment Variables.
- Under User variables, double-click TEMP, copy the TEMP variable path value, and paste it into the text file to save it.
- Replace the TEMP variable value with the path to the newly created TEMP folder (from step 1, in this example, C:\TESTTEMP).
- Repeat steps 6 and 7 for the TMP user variable.
- Click OK to save changes.
- Install the Autodesk software product.
- When the software is installed successfully, return to Environment Variables to restore the default TEMP and TMP variable values, using the strings pasted into the text file.
