IMPOSSIBLE TO INSTALL REVIT 2021

[jmartucci2]

I cannot install Revit 2021 no matter what I try. I tried the Autodesk Desktop app installer, install failed. I tried the browser download, install failed. I tried removing all my temp files, installed failed. I run all the latest updates on my computer and restart multiple times, install failed. Everything I've researched and tried has been a huge waste of my time.

I got it to install a few weeks ago, but my computer immediately had an error afterward which made me restore my entire operating system back to where it was before I had installed Revit 2021. After waiting to let Autodesk figure out the issues, I tried installing again today, which has been unsuccessful. To make matters worse it seems I cannot open my projects in previous versions of Revit now.

What is the point of releasing software that can't be installed?

But it has been successfully installed many times. Try posting in the Installation and Licensing forum for answers that can help you track down what's wrong on your end.

Have you verified that your system meets minimum specs?  

[jmartucci2]

I think so, I've run 2019 and 2020 on it for the last 2 years and it's been almost seamless until now. Disk space isn't an issue, I have over 330 GB free. My system information is attached.

Have you been able to spot if at any moment during the installation it shows some kind of error?
Even if the installator didn't crash and "finished" installing the program, it may show at one point that it skipped a part of the installation process. However, it does not always work this way..

No it doesn't give me any kind of error. In the installer it just says "Install Failed. The following products failed to install" and it lists Revit 2021 and all the associated libraries, etc.

Hey,

I installed Revit 2021 correctly, I use the browser download method.  Just a simple thing (which I'm sure you've already done) is to check the number of files which download is correct.  The browser popup blocker can sometimes prevent all the files downloading.

Best of luck,

Mark
