This may be a permissions thing - you can Google the error and find various ways to solve this.
Here's one example -

I think this has come up before. I believe it's to do with the version of Windows Installer on your system. Perhaps it's because you have a fresh OS install. the JoinFS .msi file is compiled for Windows Installer 4.05, so you need at least that to install it.
If I was you I would manually run Windows Update several times until all updates have completed. Then try it again.

To All who replied I Thank you very much.
I tried the guy who gave me the u-tube link that does not work in windows 10. However there was a guy on that site that put up a free program that converts MSI files to exe files and that worked like a charm. the program is called msi2exe and here is the link if any one has the same frustrating time that I had

Once again thanks
Mike
