I've been trying to install Oracle 19c for a day now. Whenever I attempt to run the setup.exe file, after having extracted the original zip folder download, the setup.exe file does not finish executing and the installer freezes as shown in my attached snippet shown below.
When I hover over the installer, the mouse changes to the windows 'loading' circular icon, and no options are able to be clicked exit the exit button which brings about the datalogs.
The path for the db set up is 'C:\db_home'. When I run the setup.exe, I run it as an administrator. And yes, I am in an administrator account.
From the datalogs the only snippet that really sticks out to me is;
