trouble with revit installation

Hi, 

I am not able to download the student version of revit 2016. I tried multiple times following the instructions but it takes a very long time and keeps failing half way through the installation.

The virtual agent mentioned by @ennujozlagam can be found on this web page.

I tried turning off my anti-virus and installing via the virtual agent but
I wasn't successful. After I download the exe file and click on it, it says
that some files are missing. 😞
The installation window says installing 4 of 8 before it fails.
Is there anything else I can try?
Thank you!

Are you installing just Revit, or one of the suites?  I do not know about the individual titles, but the suites have more than one download file, and you need to download all of them before starting the installation.
