  • Do you need the full client? Or can you use [Oracle Instant Client](https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/instant-client.html) which is a simple ZIP install (plus installing a VS Redistributable). – Christopher Jones Jul 29 '20 at 22:35

Providing a local file name is rather pointless if you don't provide the content of the file.

You must install with Administrator privileges ("Run as Admin" may not work)

Delete these files/folders before you run the setup:

  • %ProgramFiles%\Oracle\Inventory
  • %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Oracle\Inventory
  • %TEMP%\deinstall*
  • %TEMP%\OraInstall*
  • %TEMP%\CVU*
  • The folder where you like to install the client

Verify your Registry, key HKLM\Software\Oracle and HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Oracle should be deleted

For installation follow this instruction: BadImageFormatException. This will occur when running in 64 bit mode with the 32 bit Oracle client components installed
