InstallAnywhere “please select another location to extract the installer to”

Published on July 4th, 2006 by DannyT. Filed under Flash, Flex

Adobe’s preferred windows installer seems to be InstallAnywhere, I was just trying to install the remoting components and got the error:
“Please select another location to extract the installer to”
There was plenty of disk space and I had full admin privileges, turned out to be CA etrust antivirus i was running, disabled that and it installed fine.

Didn’t find much on Google so thought i’d post it here.

It seems you have to redownload this file. The simmilar program is registered about CF:

At times, though a download may appear successful, attempting to run the downloaded installer results in the message: “Please select another location to extract the installer to”.

This error can indicate that the copy of the installer you have obtained was corrupted during the download process.
