Install Failed (ERROR 80070643)
May 02, 2016
Hi everyone,
I am getting an Install Failed message when trying to install storyline 2 on my Dell Laptop. (Windows 10 64 bit) I get the message:
Install Failed
The storyline installation folder contents appear to have been moved, renamed or deleted. ERROR 80070643
The bar becomes full and all files are copied to the program files (x86) folder and an icon is created on the desktop. But then suddenly all of it disappears (the folder and the icon) and it gives the error message.
I have tried some things suggested in previous threads including:
1. Installing the Zip version / EXE versions. Both give the same errors.
2. Going back to recovery save point and starting again. Same error.
3. Installing the program on another laptop and copying the program file to this laptop. Running the file does nothing. Installing Storyline again with that folder still gives the error message.
4. copying temp files that were suggested. but those too disappear.
Any and all help is really appreciated.

That didn't work for me...which may make sense, my error code was 8007064C. Thanks for the tip though!
My case number is 00946516
Lets hope we can get it figured out!

I forgot to mention. Restarting Windows 10 and then attempting the install solved a number of error code issues for me on my laptop. ;)
Thanks Joshua and I see that Miker has been assigned to your case so I'll keep an eye on it as well!

I am getting this error now too, when trying to install Storyline 2. I don't see any clear information on fixes. Is it possible that a hard drive space issue on the C: drive can cause this installation error? [error: 80070643]

what must be do to recover the storyline
Hello Nabendu,
So sorry to hear you are having difficulties installing Storyline on your computer. Happy to help!
In order to better assist you, I have a few clarifying questions:
1. Are you using Articulate Storyline 3 or Articulate Storyline 360 on your computer?
2. Are you receiving a specific error code? If you could please share that with us, we'd have a better understanding of your issue.
One recommendation from our Support Engineers for others who have opened cases within this thread is to confirm that you have sufficient admin rights to uninstall and install the software on your computer.
