Was the UAC enabled while you were installing it? Or did you start the Setup
file by right clicking and selecting Run as Administrator?

I got the UAC prompt and clicked continue to install.

OK, I suggest you to turn it off before start installing SQL Server and then
turn it on after the Setup completes. Just give it a try and let's see what
happens.

It didn't worked as well.
Instead of adding current user during installation, I added the
Administrator (System Built in) account and it worked.
