You may try re-downloading Lr 4 and re-installing it on a new admin user account and check if that helps.

humptydumpty2012 Apr 27, 2012 7:29 PM (in response to Arpit Kapoor)Hi, I re-downloaded the installer but the same thing happened when I ran it. I am using an administrative account. I tried installing LR on my desktop computer at work (also 64-bit Windows 7) and it worked fine. I noticed that the install shield wizard there mentioned adobe_lightroom.msi rather than adobe_lightroom_x64.msi like it does on my laptop. Thanks.

Mylenium Apr 27, 2012 7:40 PM (in response to humptydumpty2012)Perhaps some install log might help. I'm sure they exist someplace just like the ones for CS5.5 ...

I am not aware of any specific installation log for Photoshop Lightroom. You can view the Event Viewer under the Adminsitration Tools. Beyond that I would recommend following the steps listed in Troubleshoot system errors, freezes | Windows | Adobe software - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/troubleshoot-system-errors-freezes-windows.html. We don't currently have a troubleshooting document for Lightroom specifically.

10. Re: lightroom 4 installation problem (windows 7)
JonathanMayo May 15, 2012 6:35 AM (in response to humptydumpty2012)It sounds like for whatever reason the installer isn't able to extract the 64 bit install files. Lightroom comes as one file but it is really just a bundled up archive with both the 32bit and 64bit installers included. When you run it the installer extracts these and then runs the one relevant to your system (in this case it would be the 64 bit installer).
As you have another machine where the install goes ok you could run the installer on this machine, it will extract the install files at which point you should be able to copy those files onto a USB stick or something, take them home and then run the installer directly. Hopefully this should get around the problem that the installer is having extracting the files and allow you to install the program directly.
