This doesn’t answer your question, but why not use the portable version?

Where did you download the installer from? What is the exact file size? (I am wondering if you downloaded a corrupt file or from an invalid/unofficial distribution host, or whether you accidentally downloaded the HTML download page instead of the actual exe file)
(I originally guessed ARM x64 vs INTEL x64, but your installer name seems to match your computer info)

And I was wondering if possibly (given it’s a new PC) that Windows is running in S mode. If so, only apps from the Microsoft Store will install. However the error message (if what you gave is accurate) doesn’t appear to match what I thought it would say.
However to check, read this Microsoft page.
