I have attempted to download and install solidworks 2017 several times using my university activation code without success. It downloads completely but only installs about 25% before reporting an error: "The windows installer for this product component did not run as expected: INSTALL" and it suggests I report my install logs to tech support. My schools tech support could not help and suggest that I contact solidworks, please help.
Hi Taylor,
There is not much to go on here. Do you have an image of the error that you can post into this thread? Also, the log files tend to be very helpful. If you want to you can PM me a Dropbox download link for the logs and I can take a look through them (you don't usually want to post logs on an open forum).
