Current Version Install Issues (Windows EXE Installer)

Hey all. I am trying to upgrade to the latest release and have downloaded the current Installer but, after uninstalling the previous version, I am getting 20 "Error opening for writing:" errors and, even though the install finishes, it won't load. Anyone else having that issue? Suggestions to resolve?

Thanks!
