Nakaya,

Can you explain more about the difficulties you have with installing Revit?

'Cause now we dont know the issues u have at the moment.

Welcome to the community..

Without your installation log file we can only speculate what the issue.  Share your installation log file or

I'm assuming your issue is based on the method you're using to download/install. 

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.

One final thing:  If you have the Win 10 Anniversary update it is recommended that you roll back this version if you can.  If you subscribe to the Win 10 Insider Preview, Autodesk is not supporting this and you will not be able to install a majority of the Autodesk Products.

I realize that because I have a windows 10 system, revit 2016 will not download. So, I downloaded revit 2017. It seems to be working; however, only the 30 day trial was available and I do not know how to get the free student version.
