Setup will not run

When I try to run the installation/setup program, I get the following error message:

"This advertised application will not be installed because it might be unsafe. Contact your administrator to change the installation user interface option of the package to basic"

I AM the administrator, and I've never heard of a installation user interface option.

Any help you can provide would be appreciated.

I have never heard of that either.

Do you have an anti-virus program that may be blocking the installation?

Perhaps you could try right clicking and choose "Run as Administrator"?

[Dirkmaster]

I have tried running as administrator, with the same effect. My antivirus is MalwareBytes Premium, and I have disabled it as well.

Can you include a full screen screenshot of the message you see. Make it full screen so I can see if there's anything that might be causing this issues running in your system tray. McAfee and AVG and notorious for blocking the wrong things.

What version of Windows are you running?

If you are on Vista or older, do you have .NET Framework 3.5 installed?

[Dirkmaster]

Running Windows 10, 64bit, latest update but no betas.

I have a LOT running in the background, but this issue has never come up until the I uninstalled the old version to install the latest.

Will update this post with an image once I get home from work.

Please post the screenshot... but I had one other idea. I have seen where an uninstallation didn't finish completely and it caused problems similar to this. If you uninstalled, you may want to make sure to delete "C:\Program Files (x86)\TorrentRover" and "%localappdata%\TorrentRover" folders. Then try and install again.

If you had an active Subscription, you may need to go through Tools -> Manage Subscription -> Recover Subscription.

Sorry for the huge size and three screens. The screen you can about is the center one.

I found this online...

There are a couple suggestions. One is to just move the installer closer to the root folder and run it again.

The accepted solution is to run from command line with certain arguments, but no one has ever had this problem before, so I assume it's something specific to your environment (computer).

[Dirkmaster]

Okay, so I checked and neither of the two directories you mention were present.

The install program is only one level deep from the root, so I don't think that's it.

The command line option won't work, as that command appears to only work on .msi installers, not .exe. At least it didn't run for me, even from an Administrator CMD.

Did the image help you at all?

Honestly, the image was hard to read, but I was able to see the text. That's about all I could gather though.

You say you don't have either of those two folders? Is this your first time installing TorrentRover?
