Setup failed 0x80070005 - Santo - Jul-27-2017

Hi, recently I have changed my computer and I wanted to install python 3.5.2 (64-bit). The problem is that when the installation starts, suddenly appears an error:
0x80070005 - access denied
I have searched the error on the web and I found nothing.
Before anything, I also downloaded other versions of python, including the 64 and 32 versions, and it happens the same. Can someone help me?
PD: I'm using windows 7 ultimate 64 bits

This issue can be caused by the firewall /anti-virus or administrator rights.
Try with 3.6,
Python 3.6 and pip installation under Windows.

I turned off the firewall and the anti-virus, I used the admin rights and I also followed the instructions of how to install python and it happens the same. Could it be something wrong with the bios, because when I turn on the computer, it doesn't appear the bios options.

Have you tried right clicking the installer, and then clicking "Run as Admin"?
Does a popup appear, asking for your authorization to allow the installer to run?

Yep, I also tried that, and it appears the same error

This will work for sure if none of them above works.

1. reset win 7 (you can keep ur file but will reinstall software)
2. after reset, do the windows update (otherwise you`ll get a 0*80070652 error)
3. reinstall again! this will work for sure.

the error you got is a permission issue, reset to factory will definitely solve that.
Please let me know if you still couldn`t fix this after this last try.

May the force be with you.
