Like I said, I figured it out!...check first the integrity of the downloaded iso.
then, check no security apps or antivirus running.
The installation instructions say to mount it, so mount it.question, can i not mount this but just copy the whole dir to my local C: and then add other programs to exclude from the install via the config file? when i tried this then click tried to run "install" via admin it just open and closed quickly? please advise
Thank you
