Can someone try this...

How about this one.. Make sure you uninstall any ARC that you have previously installed from the Control Panel.
TesterInstaller.msi
This one worked for me on Windows 7 64bit
Note: I also installed the latest version of .NET
okay, this one worked for me on Windows 8.1 64bit.
