Update 1.7.07 fails to install on my laptop

I have been unable to install 1.7.07 on my Dell laptop running Win10 for Business. the tool opens and starts, but gets hung up on the “where should we install” window. I click NEXT and nothing happens.

Have verified available space and rebooted.

A recent Windows update changed some Windows Runtime components. You may need to restore the components in order to open LightBurn.

Please install the two files below and then try again.

Yes. Thank you very much. I will save these files so I have them. I may need to complete the windows update. For now I’m sticking with a restore point that windows created before the update screwed everything up.
