Hi!
I was going to install 3.20.3 in parallel with 3.20.1 when I got the
strangest installation error.
"Installation directory must be on a local hard drive."
I can think of nothing more local than C:\Program Files\QGIS 3.20.3\
which is what the installer suggested.
What is going on here? I have ne
Hi,
My first reaction is that a LTR can be installed with a developer version but
3.20.1 and 3.20.3 not. I would need to test if this is still true. Before
checking that, I would remove the dots “ . “ from the path and try again.

Hi Nicolas!
That is not an option. I have had QGIS installed in 'dotted' paths since
2.xx
Currently 3.10, 3.16 and 3.20.1, all suggested by the installer.
Dots in paths and folder names are perfectly valid and has nothing to do
with 'local hard drive'.

Hi Nicolas!
I appreciate you trying to help.
For now, I’ll just relax and wait for a fix which will come eventually. I am
not in the mood for guessing what the false error message is trying to say.
And the OSGEO4W installer has a download cycle that takes hours, even on my 100
Mbit connection.

Hi Mats,
Did you create an issue for it? Else there will never be fix 'eventually' :-)
And I thi

:-)*"
No, I did not. I figured that enough people would stumble on this error
anyway.
And as it turns out, a freshly downloaded installation file worked w/o
problem.
