Two users mentioned in various forum posts that there are problems with user accounts whose Windows user name contains umlauts or similar characters. For this reason, I did create a new (second) windows local admin account with a short 1-byte user name ("ocul" in my case) and there installed the Oculus App. WORKED FOR ME!
