Hi Gator,
Do you have the Comodo AV already installed?

Thanks.

Gator · August 29, 2015, 2:45am

No, I just wanted the Firewall

Hi Gator,
I was just going to point you to the add/remove CIS component wizard if you did already have the AV.

I would suggest cleaning out the following temp location, reboot and then attempt to reinstall again.
C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Temp

Have you previously had Comodo Firewall installed?
Is Comodo Firewall listed under ‘Windows Programs and Features’?

Thanks.

Hi Gator,
Have you tried uninstalling under ‘Windows Programs and Features’ before attempting the installation again?

Thanks.

This is a fresh install, i’ve tried a few times with a clean temp directory and it still gives me that error. Right around 60% that error pops up. Is v5.10 still pretty secure?

Hi Gator,
Sorry to hear that the issue is persistent.
5.x FW is still safe to use, however due to the partial/failed installation it might be worth looking at the suggestions Kindly posted by Chiron in the following link.
