Hi Andreas, Yes, I am using an English version of Windows. I tried installing it with the full installer, the minimum installer, and the zip file alone, but no option worked enough to not give me the error message in the stderr.txt file. I didn't get any error message during the installation process, and do have full administrative rights on this computer.
Thanks for the help.
