Installing anaconda - "failed to create anaconda menus"

I've been trying to install anaconda in the past few days, but with not luck. I tried both the 2.7 and 3.6 version, but whenever I try to install it just says "failed to create anaconda menus", so the installation can't be completed. I tried to look for a solution at other threads, but nothing seems to work. Does anyone around here have an idea on what to do? If it somehow helps - I'm using the 32-bit version for windows XP. Thanks in advance!
