Product, version and build: Powershell Studio 2012 3.1.35

Hi,
I'm trying to install Powershell Studio 2012, the installer gets up to the moment where it is about to start installing pre-requisite software and then it hangs. It opens a series of Windows Installer processes and hogs alot of resources (Network / CPU / RAM) but never progresses at all (The bar stays at 0% on the install).

I've tried running this multiple times, I have run it with Admin rights and I have full local admin permissions on the laptop and I have left it for over an hour without the bar changing.

Is there a problem with Windows 10 installs?

PowerShell Studio 2012 was created before Windows 10 existed, so it is possible that it is a compatibility issue. I recommend unchecking all the optional features before installing the software to see if that helps.

Spot on David, thanks.

I unticked everything but the C++ Redists and the main Program, it worked fine.

Perfect.
