Displaylink 1.8 will not install on 2011 MacBook Air M2

JupiterJim · 02-13-2023, 10:08 PM

I am the only user on this MBA and have Admin rights. I have downloaded 1.8 a few times and tried but keep getting the same message:

"The installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance."

Any clue how to fix? I do have a LG screen attached to MBA via USB-C but I unhooked it also and tried and that did not allow the installation to go thru.

Any other ideas?

I have read this but the "Installer" is not an option under "Files and Folders":
