Answer:
If your upgrade or install was performed after July 15th, 2015 the most likely explanation is a known conflict caused by Microsoft® update KB 3072630 which was released on July 15th, 2015. This update makes changes to the Windows Installer.
To address this problem, try the following steps with your IT department's assistance if required:
Standalone installs:
1. Click 'Start', click 'Run', type "regedit" in the 'Open' box, and then click 'OK'.
2. Locate and click the following subkey in the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer
Note: If this subkey does not exist, create it.
3. In the 'Edit' menu, point to 'New', and then click 'DWORD Value'.
4. For the DWORD name, type "RemappedElevatedProxiesPolicy", and then press 'Enter'.
5. Right-click "RemappedElevatedProxiesPolicy", and then click 'Modify'.
6. In the 'Value' data box, type 1, and then click 'OK'.
7. Run a Repair of your SOLIDWORKS Installation (S-050527)
8. After the application installs successfully, reset the 'RemappedElevatedProxiesPolicy' DWORD value to "0" to re-enable the security fix for KB 3072630.
Administrative Image installs:
1. Uninstall SOLIDWORKS from Programs and Features
2. Click 'Start', click 'Run', type "regedit" in the 'Open' box, and then click 'OK'.
3. Locate and click the following subkey in the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer
Note: If this subkey does not exist, create it.
4. In the 'Edit' menu, point to 'New', and then click 'DWORD Value'.
5. For the DWORD name, type "RemappedElevatedProxiesPolicy", and then press 'Enter'.
6. Right-click "RemappedElevatedProxiesPolicy", and then click 'Modify'.
7. In the Value data box, type "1", and then click 'OK'.
8. Install SOLIDWORKS from your Administrative Image
9. After the application installs successfully, reset the RemappedElevatedProxiesPolicy DWORD value to "0" to re-enable the security fix for KB 3072630.
SOLIDWORKS® Development and Tech Support are working diligently with Microsoft® toward a resolution
Additionally, please contact your VAR to submit a service request on your behalf to received updates for when SPR 902645 is implemented.
I strongly advise you to carry out these manipulations with your IT department, because they concern the editing of the Windows registry.
Good luck
