Installing Turbo Tax Deluxe 2016

I'm using Windows 10 Pro and trying to install turbo tax. The installation process stops at 27% and in about 40 to 50 minutes times out with error message 65535.

The computer is new and I have downloaded and installed several other programs since turbo tax failed. Any suggestions.
