Comment(by spatialminds):

 It works when "Run As Administrator" is selected for the installer instead
 of running it as a regular Administrator user.  The installer doesn't
 elevate priviledges on its own.

 I didn't mean to sound argumentative.  I thought perhaps you weren't
 unaware that the website points to the incorrect Long Term Support
 version.

 I'll consider trying the newer version.
