Android Installation Error - Unable to elevate [error:1812]

Question

I have downloaded the latest android studio android-studio-bundle-135.1740770-windows from the official site. But when I install the downloaded application

Answer 1

Check this stuffs:

• Right click your android-studio-bundle-135.1740770-windows.exe and go to properties and click unblock buttons if it's available.
• Make sure Firewall was Disabled and your antivirus software.
• Disable UAC.

And some blogger says this step:

Convert the installer file into a CD Image (eg using Magic ISO Maker, http://www.magiciso.com/download.htm)

2) Install from CD Drive. http://setup-steps.blogspot.com/2014/12/android-studio-unable-to-elevate.html

Answer 2

Right-click on the installer > Properties > Run Compatibility Troubleshooter. It will recommend some settings and it will apply them as well. Then you should be able to run it.

Answer 3

I think that your application is on a drive other than C drive. Try and copy it from that drive and paste it to the desktop then I think it would work - it worked for me at least.
