Welcome to the community..
That user is referring to the program that is in the attached ZIP file.. I don't know what it does but I would caution you in programs that are accessing the registry.. Something goes wrong and corrupts your registry then you could "break" your computer..
What issues are you actually having? We maybe able to assist you without the need to use this program.

Welcome to the community..
Well your installation is simply failing due to the method (web installer) you're using. This method is unreliable and shouldn't be used.
Download and install per:
1. Access the Autodesk Virtual Agent and follow the download links to your product.
2. Download all of the parts (some applications only have a single part to download) for your product first. Do not continue until all of the parts have fully downloaded.
3. Navigate to your download folder location and extract (double click) part _001_00X.sfx.exe (or the single file download).
4. In a few seconds the extraction will start and prompt you to extract to C:\Autodesk.
5. Once the extraction is finished, the installation will automatically start.
6. Follow the installation steps for your product
If you want the full recommended installation steps, click on the installation link in my signature.
However if the installation does fail using this method, please post your installation log file here so we can review it. Posting info: Sometimes installation log files contain personal information such as your serial #. Prior to posting your log file please make sure to remove such info.
Good luck on your installation and report back on your progress.

Not sure why you provided your installation log again.. I've already told you that its failing due to the method you're using.. Just follow my instructions using the Autodesk Virtual Agent (because I can tell by the log file you haven't done that).
