How to Fix Adobe Premiere Pro Error Code 24 During Installation?
The Error Code 24 typically appears when running the setup file for Adobe Premiere Pro, preventing the installation from proceeding. The error screen offers two options: Retry or Quit, but selecting “Retry” usually leads to the same error recurring.
This error may also occur during the installation of other Adobe software. Fortunately, the fix is straightforward—it involves launching the setup file directly from within the ZIP archive. This method helps avoid file path or permission conflicts that typically trigger Error Code 24.
- Right-click on the
setup.exe
file and choose Run as administrator. - Restart your computer and attempt the installation again.
If the error persists, proceed with the method below.
