Got my Quest 2 yesterday, then went to install the oculus app, it downloaded the 5GB of files, and then got stuck halfway through the install. I checked task manager and it said suspended, so I resumed it, and it went to about 3/4 of the way through installation and says "Restart Computer - There was an error installing oculus software"
Here's where the fun begins.. I tried resorting to looking everywhere I could think for info on the situation. I've tried deleting all oculus files in Appdata, temp, and program files several times, that didn't work. I tried uninstalling literally all c++ applications, didn't work (and now I'll have to find them somewhere). I tried installing to a different drive, didn't work. I tried making a whole new administrator user to do a clean installation, DIDN'T WORK.
I checked the appdata/local/oculus install txt file, and the only thing it says is after it gives me the error, the file says "Exception deleting 'C:\Users\Seth\AppData\Local\Temp\OculusSetup-b983bcc9-df28-43a9-8e13-fe95c6e13bb5':
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'DaybreakNative.dll' is denied." Which is strange, given I manually tried to make all access points for the setup fully accessible and ran the setup application as administrator as well as (in a different try) moving the setup exe INTO the program files folder!
I really need help with this issue and I hope I was descriptive enough.

4. Select logs for the last 24 hours

OculusLogGatherer.exe does not exist since the installation was broken, and a 2 hour conversation with an oculus support specialist had me try the same things I've done already to no success.
From reviewing the setup log file, it seems the reason it keeps stopping is because the installer has no access to delete some of the files in the temp folder. Many others have the issue but I've found no remedy in their responses they got.
