Hi, sorry to hear about this problem. If you are using the small download (stub installer), could you try the full download (offline installer) and see whether that works better:

https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release

Please double-check the selectors to make sure the correct language and OS are selected.

Quote: "can not create temp folder archive"

That is a problem with the 7-ZIP extractor that is able to extract the archive to the temp folder.

You can check the permissions and owner for the temp folder (%TMP% and %TEMP%) via "Properties -> Security -> Advanced" in the right-click context menu.
