I know other people had these problems before but none of the solutions suggested worked for me. I have contacted both customer support and @AdobeCare and the latter suggested posting to this forum.
Issue:
When trying to install Experience Design on Windows 10 on my Surface Pro 4, the download stops at around 44% and fails. This is the error message that appears.
Exit Code: 183
-------------------------------------- Summary --------------------------------------
- 2 fatal error(s), 0 error(s), 1 warnings(s)
FATAL: Error (Code = 183) executing in command 'RunProgramCommand' for package: 'UWPAssets', version:0.6.28.10
FATAL: Error occurred in install of package (Name: UWPAssets Version: 0.6.28.10). Error code: '183'
WARN: Program "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe XD\CSDKConfigurator.exe" failed with exit code: -1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What I tried:
1. Uninstalling Creative Cloud, clearing temp files and app data and using Adobe CC Cleaner and reinstalling Adobe Creative Cloud.
2. Contact Customer Support. The representative did the above as well using remote screen share to control my computer. Checked antivirus and firewalls but they were not the cause of the issue. Kept telling me that I had to have Windows 10 Anniversary update (which I did) and that Experience Design was in beta and not supported by Adobe Customer Support before suddenly disconnecting the chat.
If there is anything else to try, let me know. Thank you.
Hello everyone.
The Adobe Developer managed to find the issue. Hopefully this would solve the issue for others with similar problems.
I am using a Surface Pro 4. To compensate for my storage, I use microSD to install apps from Windows Store. Adobe Experience Design is a UWP app and despite the fact it is not downloaded from the Windows Store, it is treated as such and attempts to install to the microSD card. Adobe XD can only be installed, for the moment, on NTFS format but my microSD card was on

You could add your name to this list:
Can't reinstall XD. Exit Code: 183 – Adobe XD Feedback : Feature Requests & Bugs
Just searching for 'FATAL: Error (Code = 183)' shows that the problem has come up for Illustrator and Muse users, and those are not in beta. I couldn't find a solution for those users either, but I didn't look for very long. If you could find a fix for Illustrator it would hopefully word for XD.
Here's one report that has suggestions of things to try, but I don't know if it helped:

XD is a UWP app, so to uninstall go to the Start Menu, find entry for "Adobe Experience Design", then right-click and choose Uninstall.

Was the question not about installing, rather than uninstalling? I'm sure they are looking forward to the day that they have the option to uninstall!

The question was indeed about installing and not uninstalling. Uninstalling is not an option since I can't even get it to install in the first place.

Yeah I looked through the forum so many times but I have yet to see any of the answers solving the problem. The only time I saw the problem solved was through some Windows update or just restarting the computer. My computer is up to date and I have restarted many times so this isn't an option.

Sorry you're hitting this issue, and we're looking into why you got the response you did from our call-in support. Our apologies!
Error 183 is a fairly generic installation error, but there are a couple of options you can try:

Thanks for telling me about the log tool. I tried downloading Experience Design and after the fail message I ran the log tool and collected the logs. Where should I send the log file?

You can upload it to a file sharing service and send me the link via personal message. (Hover over my name and then click on "Message.")

Circling back on this public thread, I did get in touch with our Customer Support team and tracked down what happened on their side, and hopefully, it shouldn't happen again. I received your logs, but it turns out we'll need some additional logfiles. I believe our customer support team is in touch with you, right? They can walk you through the logs we need in order to better triage the issue.
Thanks,

Adobe Experience Design is a UWP app and despite the fact it is not downloaded from the Windows Store, it is treated as such and attempts to install to the microSD card. Adobe XD can only be installed, for the moment, on NTFS format but my microSD card was on exFAT format. Setting apps to be installed to C: and not D: solved the issue. To do so, go to Settings -> System -> Storage -> Change where new content is saved -> New Apps will be Saved to: This PC (C:).

I was having same issue. I went into programs & features, in my control panel on my PC, located Adobe Creative Cloud and right-clicked to uninstall it. It then gave me the option to "repair" Creative Suite. After I did that, then my Adobe XD opened!
