Hello @Anonymous, 

I could suggest several workarounds but it may lead to a clean uninstall anyway, so I suggest conducting a clean uninstall & reinstall. 

1. Conduct a Clean Uninstall of the previous installation & use the MSfixitTool to complete it
2. Reboot the computer, make sure apps are not auto running in the background 
3. Log in as Administrator (check your permissions, full control) or create a new profile
4. Make sure you have an uninterrupted & high-speed connection to the internet
5. Clean out the TEMP folder. To open the TEMP folder, type %TEMP% in the address bar of Windows Start Menu and hit Enter (Windows)
6. Temporarily disable security settings like Antivirus, Firewall & UAC on your Windows operating system
7. Use the Browser Download Method in your Autodesk Account or via the AVA | Autodesk Virtual Agent (download all the parts)

Please "Accept Solution" if a reply or replies have helped resolve the issue or answered your question, to help others in the community.

No one of the solution offer by Autodesk worked for me. In the end i reboot my PC and now it works.

Hi,

when you say  "reboot "you mean reboot  and not  "set up " your pc completely ( reinstall your Windows etc.) ?

In other words, did  the recomendations help you ?

I have the same problem which is really time consuming.

Thanks

Go into your Autodesk Account (manage.autodesk.com)  product updates.  Look for licensing mechanism update and apply that on your machine.  Now try the installation again.

I had to reinstall windows

Hi Mark,

Do you mean the "Autodesk Licensing Service 9.2.2. 2501 - Update" ?

Thanks for your note 🙂

[bigdude409]

So I need to reinstall windows to upgrade?

Are you seeing a 1603 error?   Without your installation log file we can only speculate what the issue is at this point.  So attach your installation file here so we can review it.

Posting info: Sometimes the installation log file contains the serial # that was assigned to you.  Open your log file using Windows Notepad and perform a search on "/SN".  Depending on the number of installation attempts, your serial # may be located throughout the log file.  If present, remove or "X" out your serial # prior to posting.
