I've been trying to solve this install problem for my son for three hours, now it's time to ask for help. I have tried several of the advised options listed in the forum, including uninstalling java and reinstalling, uninstalling lw and reinstalling, and lastly, as suggested by foolofthehill, doing so manually and offline. All leave me with the same result: installation appears successful but upon trying to run, getting this message:
