Installation Error: Could Not Find the File Specified

I'm in the process of getting my new laptop setup, but I run into an issue installing PIA. Here is the error message that appears when trying to install:

Can anyone help me understand what is going wrong and how to fix the issue? Thanks.

  • I'm having the same problem.  Did a clean up on my computer, PIA stopped opening.  Tried to do an uninstall/reinstall and now I'm getting this.

    I hate to be the "Captain Obvious", but did you guys try RIGHT clicking the executable file and selecting the context option to "Run as Administrator"?
  • I love Captain Obvious. I guess it should state this on the install instruction page.

    Actually, "Run as Administrator" should be programmed directly into the installer. Many other programs that I install have "Run as Administrator" forced on. When you click on the installer executable, it automatically asks for Administrator privileges.

    The PIA team should program that into the next release.
