If you're operating system's Run as Administrator option is not working then please follow those steps to install MSI file.
Step 1: Click start

Well, in that case you will just need to log to the computer as the administrator with the sufficient privileges to enable you carry out the installation.
As a matter of fact, the reason as to why you are not getting the run as administrator option when you right click on the application as you have indicated above could be because the account you are logged on with is the administrator account, and therefore you will just need to go ahead and click on install for the setup process to begin.
If had not done that yet, then do it and see what the response is.
