Runtime error 216 at 0040844A during installation

I have tried to install the latest Bitcomet software 15-20 times since I got a new WIndows 10 laptop 3 days ago … either nothing appears to happen, or I get that there is a runtime error 216 at 0040844A.

I have disabled firewall and virus scan in McAfee (which otherwise would delete the software all together, saying it has a virus).

Any suggestions?
