Sketchbook crashes on installation

Anonymous
Not applicable

When I start sketchbook_8.7.1.0_win64.exe as An Administrator locally on HD, on a Windows 10 (64bit) machine with all updates installed, I get the "I agree" choice.

 

If I click Next I get the next install screen, I can see it start installation, but it crashes after a few seconds.

 

Sketchbook is not installed.

 

Tried installing in compatibility mode,  also with NVIdia or internal graphic card, this makes no difference.

 

Read the hints and searched the forum, but could not find a similar problem.

 

Hope you can help

 

Grtz

Re-run the installer but do not hit 'Next'.  With the UI still running,  type in the search:

 

%temp%

 

Then change folder to 'details' view.  Look for the RARSFX1 folder and navigate to it.  COPY the contents to a new folder on the desktop. 

 

If you now cancel the installer, it will delete the folder.  Run the Setup.exe  file that you have copied to the desktop folder and choose the 'Run As Administrator' (Right Mouse Click > Run as Administrator ON "Setup.exe".)

Thanks!
Running setup.exe did not work.
Running SketchBook8.0.0.msi did the trick.
