Installing Arduino IDE 2.2.1 FAIL

I have not been able to install Arduino IDE 2.2.1. During the install, I point the location to be installed to C:\Program Files. There is no Arduino folder in this directory. During the install I get the following error messages. I had a 1.x version running earlier, and uninstalled it. I’m not sure if that caused a problem.

They might be hiding in the x86 Program File folder? https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/art … rduino-IDE

I did two things to get the installation to work. I don’t really think the first step did anything to help the second, but I’m not going to undo everything to test.

  1. I installed an older version, 1.8. This installed in the C:\Program Files (x86), so I don’t think this helps the 2.2.1 install.

  2. I installed 2.2.1, but this time I selected the radio button to make it available to everyone that used my computer. I had no problems installing this way. It installed on C:\Program Files
