Installing Revit

August 13, 2017, 07:22 AM

Hi, I'm having trouble installing Revit 2018. I go through all the installation steps and it looks like it's going to work, but when it gets to the final screen it says "failed to install the following items" and has red x's next to every item.

i read that you can try disabling antivirus software and I did that but it didn't work.

any suggestions?

When you get that final screen there should be a link to the Log file, that would be a great place to start.

Other items:
- Run as Admistrator
- Have the hard drive space to install....if you are in the red when you click on Computer in explorer...time to clear out temp files.
- Don't download from the "Install Now" button....install via the Virtual Agent instead so you can download all the parts first.
- What is the Operating System?

HTH....oh, and welcome to the Forum.
