It's likely Windows or some antivirus program being difficult. Usually you can get around most install issues for regular programs by installing as admin. Right-click EXE, and choose "Run as admin".

The problem that I am facing is that the installer (InstallShield Wizard) pops up for a moment as if it's loading the install, but then suddenly drops the command without any further prompts or error messages. I have been looking around my PC to see if it is because of either the built-in Windows Antivirus program, the firewall, or my free trial of Malwarebytes, but turning both off and trying to install results the same.
I have tried running the exe as admin, that was my second solution

, but that also results the same with and without protective programs! I have tried to install different programs in the midst of this and they all install just fine, so I have not a clue as to why this specific program refuses to execute and install.
