Hi Plug,
Try the following:
This error message may also occur if a file in the Temp directory is conflicting with the files used by the installation while it is running.
Fix: Delete the entire contents of the Temp directory:
-
Double-click the My Computer icon on your desktop, or right-click Start, then click Explore.
-
Navigate to the Temp directory, for example, C:\Windows\Temp.
-
Click in the directory, then right-click and click Select All (or CTRL+A).
-
On the toolbar, click Delete or right-click the selection, then click Delete (or CTRL+X). A confirmation message appears.
-
Click Yes.
Run the installation again to see if the issue is resolved.
If that does not work, try:
This error message is often caused when the uninstallation log file becomes corrupt. This can happen if the installation is somehow corrupt.
Fix: In the Windows Task Manager, end the process that is running IDriver.exe:
-
Right-click the Windows Task bar, then click Task Manager.
-
On the Processes tab, click the Image Name column to sort it alphabetically.
-
Review the running processes to see if idriver.exe is running.
-
If idriver.exe is running, click it or right-click it, then click End Process.
Run the installation again to see if the error still occurs.
You also said that it took you a while to download the installation. Is it possible the installation file itself is corrupt/downloaded incorrectly? If yes - you can try to re-download it and see if you get different behaviour.
Please let me know if any of this works!
Cheers,
Andrew
