Hello,
I have a Problem installing Techlive 2016 on Windows 7.
As soon as I start "install-tl-windows.exe" it start to extract files in a temporary Directory, and then it tries to start the main installer, but never finishing starting it.
The first time I did this it started the main installer successfully, but the I aborted the Installation process (I have Chosen the full installed and wanted to Change to custom installation to reduce the disc space of tex).
Does anyone have a hint for me?
Regards,
Matthias

Problem installing Texlive
I don't know what's going on, to be honest, but why don't you want to install TL 2017? That would be the current version.
I recommend to do a full installation by the way. It is a real pain to install single packages later.

The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

Hi Matthias,
welcome to the forum!
Here you can find the current version TeX Live 2017 and Windows installation notes: http://tug.org/texlive/
You may run it as administrator, as the notes at http://tug.org/texlive/windows.html say.
Good luck! I'm just a bit offline running away from the hurricane (I'm still at the Bahamas) but may read your progress later.
