Any solution for error code 1603 in SQL Server 2017 installation?

Question

I installed some SQL Server Instances in 2005 and 2016 version. Now, I am trying install 2017 version, but I get the following message:

I tried to change using the SYSTEM user but it didn't work. Any ideas?

I found a solution. My error was I installed SQL Management Studio 17.9 before when I should had installed first the SQL instance . So uninstalling SQL Management Studio and all their related componets allowed me to install SQL Server 2017 whithout problems.

Thanks anyway for your answers, Ken.
