    Hi! Please make sure you’re signed in with an administrator account. Then run Settings > System > Troubleshoot > Other troubleshooters > Windows Update.

    Which program are you trying to install? Have you considered asking for assistance from the program developer?

    P.S. You will have to troubleshoot Windows Update as well, since it produces an error message. See Jeronimo Fuerte's reply.
