Has there been a beta version installed in that directory? If yes, you should uninstall it before installing AC17.
If no such thing was installed, you could simply delete that directory and then install AC17. It will create it for itself.

No beta versions installed at any point. Got around it by deleting graphisoft section from path.

No ideal but got things going. Thanks for the assist
