error running scala installer on windows

0

I am trying to use the scala 2.11.2 msi installer (downloaded from the scala site) on windows 7 professional (64 bit). However, I get the following error when launching the installer:

This installation package could not be opened. Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows installer package.

Any thoughts on whether this may have to do with the msi package, the windows system settnigs (I already have JDK8 installed on the OS).
