You appear to not have write access to your desktop. You could use the Browse to choose a different folder.

The administrator does not have write access to the desktop folders of the users.
Choose a folder outside the user's personal folders.

@DrewVam55: Move the executable of the installer to another location. Do not start it as administrator from the desktop of a user, because the administrator does not have write privileges there. Move the file e.g. to a new folder on another disk, where the user and the admin can create files.
