    The setup leavers no folders in Users. It does create the Oculus folder where it wants to install itself, but leaves no log files anywhere. (Win7).
    Also, ran as Admin, still same error.
    It goes all the way to end, asks all device driver permissions up to Android device, after which it says Windows doesn’t trust the signature, I click continue, it continues, installs about 10GB of stuff, then exits with above message and deletes all the files installed.
    I do have a 100GB free so it shouldn’t be a problem.

    Also had to start the setup with “OculusSetup.exe /bypassHotfixCheck” due to that bug of not detecting the existing windows updates.

    I really wouldn’t like to upgrade to Win10, it creeps me out.

      Neither will I buy a facebook product ever again, nor recommend it. I do have the same issue with windows 10.
      This software is a joke. Nonetheless, the logfiles are in AppData in your user directory, but the won’t provide any asistance to be honest. I’ve seen all the exceptions mentioned on the web. Every installation try produces a new error. So yeah, i have em all (so proud)

      The only thing that bothers me with your comment is:

      It shoudl creep you out using a unmaintained operating system, windows 7 is end of life since 3 years now, so your problem could also be malware, which i bet you have on your system. Do an upgrade or even better, switch to any linux distribution. You could use a debian flavour and install open drivers like http://www.openhmd.net/index.php/download/ to get your oculus running.
