Hi Ippon,

Your Windows installer may have reached the limit on the registry limitations. It holds true when you using the older version of windows operating system like Windows 95, 98 and ME. You may want to try and use windows installer 2.0 for you to be able to install the application. More details can be found here https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/300451/windows-installer-error-1406-occurs-when-installing-software.

If you are using a newer version of the Windows operating system, it is most likely that you do not have administrative rights on the computer to install the application. You may want to update your access and set it to Full Control so that you can install the application.
