ORIGINAL SOLUTION HERE

If you are using a USB stick to install, When you get to that error, close everything till you get back to the install windows button. At that point unplug your USB stick and place it into another port and install as usual.

I had the very same behaviour when trying to install Windows 10 through from a USB flash formatted with Microsoft's MediaCreationTool. The solution has been to install Windows 10 from a DVD rather than from the USB: using a DVD burnt with Microsoft's iso file, the software did not complain.
