LabVIEW 2015 Installation failed...again

Question

One year ago, I reported my failed LV 2014 installation on a Friday evening:

I am (not) happy to report that nothing changed and LV 2015 Installation failed this Friday afternoon with the exact same message:
I can't reboot my Windows virtual machine until next week, so I'll have to wait and see whether old tricks still work (they probably do).
Meanwhile, I succesfully reinstalled LV 2013 32 bits and MathScript 2013 (the latter being what I was interested in in the first place, but I was misled into downloading the 2015 version of it, which required LV 2015, which...)
 

Answer 1

Here is the full story: I wanted to try out something with MathScript RT, which I hadn't installed. I looked the toolkit up on NI.com and was sent to a page with all toolkits and LV. Downloaded it without checking much of anything and was told during installation that I needed LV 2015 to do that (my mistake). Concluded that I had been sent to the LV 2015 download page, to which I returned to install LV 2015.
What happened is history.
Just as an aside, I tried to reinstall LV 2013 32 bit to try the MathScript toolkit (which is incompatible with LV 2013 64 bit) and that install went like a charm. Go figure.
Yes, LV 2015 is out and downloadable since at least Friday afternoon.
And since my point has been missed by the best and brightest: I haven't had a LV install go without a disturbing error message like this for a while (I realize that this sentence's structure is a bit over the top so here is it in plain English: it always fails the first time). There is no warning about it in the readme, and looking for a solution on ni.com is a cat and mouse game (in fact there is no real solution). The practical fix is indeed simple (but still requires a reinstall). Since this is a common issue (at least since a few releases), maybe someone ought to look into it.
