I just downloaded and installed the Microsoft Web Platform Installer 5.0 and when I hit run it pops the following error message

'=' is an unexpected token. The expected token is ';'. Line 45, position 288

Can anybody explain what is this?

I'm on Windows 10 x64

If you try downloading and running it a second time it might work. - Andrew Morton
Actually, I didn't try to download it again. I did try to run it like three more times and now, all of a sudden it's working - reiherric
