Problem in Oracle 19c installation on Windows 10

I am trying to Run setup.exe as part of Oracle 19c installation on windows 10.

I have downloaded the zip file and extracted it in a folder inside C drive.

When I try to run setup.exe by right click and run as administrator option, a command prompt just flashes for a split of a second and nothings starts after that.

I have found the solution:

  1. After extraction, rename the extracted directory to db_home
  2. Move the db_home directory to the root of your Hard Drive ( in my case its C:\db_home )
  3. run setup.exe as an administrator.

You will see a cmd window pop up and then the red window with the Oracle symbol in it.

Do NOT skip step 2nd step as that is how I was finally able to get it to install. This also worked with 19c.

I also faced the problem. After seeing this thread, in a while, I figured it out. Apparently, keeping the db_home folder inside a folder that has space in its name caused me the same issue.

I had the same problem and read something about problems with extremely long paths in packages and using the native Windows unzip utility. I unzipped the package using 7-zip instead and it solved the problem.

I was trying to install from d partition and does not work. Then I just move all the installation folder to c partition and it works fine.
