VMware horizon client install failed

Hello,

I'm trying to upgrade version to 5.5.0 but when installing it failed. I'm using win 10.

Is it something related to VMware Horizon Media Engine 64? Because I'm not able to install this, it says have to install VMware Horizon Client 64 first

Some issue uploading the full log file, below is the error hope it can lead to somewhere

Just a guess. Does anything on the client (e.g. an A/V or endpoint security application) block write/change access to the "hosts" file?
The Horizon Client installer wants to add an entry to the hosts file.
