Hello.

I can't promise to work around the error,but have some ideas.

1)If you installing from a network share ,
    try installing with the install file local.

2)Do you have an Anti-Virus running on your machine?
   Try stopping Anti Virus before launching the installer.

3)Try changing the default path to some other simple path folder.
   ex. "c:\postgres"
