Good evening,
A simple search tells me the 1632 error is triggered when the Temp folder is either full or inaccessible; so please first check if you have ownership over the folder and if it might be necessary to free up space inside.
Also, below is a link to a similar thread on Reddit, where the poster solved the issue by doing the following,
“Found the issue: There were apparently problems of some kind with the %windir%/Installer folder. I renamed it and created a new one, now all works fine. Thanks for your help.”

Please let me know if this solves your problem or not.

…And I wanted to add that another search just told me you probably shouldn’t go messing about with that important system folder, unless you really know what you’re doing…

Okay; let’s try this again, and start at the beginning.

The first thing you’ll want to do, in order to be able to perform the following fixes, is click on to Tools > Folder Options > View in the menu bar on top, and enable “Show hidden files, folders, and drives.”

Next:
In C:\Users\LguakyzTheFurry\AppData\Local , there’s another hidden folder named Temp, which contains temporary files.

  • Firstly, if you right-click the folder and select its Properties, you can add and revoke access rights to it - make sure you have Administrator privileges to the folder (which is necessary to install software).

  • Secondly, here’s a thread on superuser.com describing ways to safely clean the Temp folder, Disk Cleanup being the safest method; under normal circumstances, it should be safe to delete any files older than 24 hours, at your own risk - but either way, do not delete the Temp folder itself, that’s not the intention.

And a final suggestion:
After reattempting the installation process, if it still doesn’t work, try disabling your firewall for a few minutes, during the installation process only.

So please try these suggestions first, and post back with your results.
