无法正确安装Anaconda

Question

I was trying to install Anaconda I have agreed the license agreement and gave the path C:\Users\USER\anaconda3 for Installation and checked the following option.

I took 20-30 Mins of time for extracting and installing a number of packages and finally it thrown an error.

Can someone explain what is causing the error?

Path not writable or missing : Try to execute the anaconda installer again running it as an administrator.
