Error 1601 Installing Revit / Revit LT 2018
You are not able to install Revit (or Revit LT) 2018 due to an Error 1601 on the installation log file.
Causes:

Solution:
A corrected *.msi file, to work around the problem, can be downloaded and used to replace the existing Revit (or Revit LT) 2018 install *.msi, on downloaded installers or deployments that include Revit/Revit LT 2018, doing the following:
