Launcher install problem "Error in overwriting the file"

I can’t install it. When I try to install via the launcher, I get this message. “Error in overwriting the file: C:\Program files etc.” What am I doing incorrectly?

EDIT: I just now got it to work by installing into program files instead of program files x86.

Pretty weird. Are you sure you didn’t have the launcher or another process of it open while trying to install?
That’s the most likely thing that causes a file overwrite to fail.

I had my browser and Discord open.

Well that’s pretty weird, then. I’ll blame antivirus scan or windows being silly next, and keeping the files open.
