“Installation failed on Exit” when attempting to install Maya on macOS

Issue:

When installing Maya on macOS, the following message is displayed:

Installation Failed
The software could not be installed.

Causes:

Residual files left over from previous Maya installation causing new installation to fail.

Solution:

Close the installer and check in your Applications folder to see if Maya actually installed successfully.

1. Try launching Maya by double clicking on the Maya icon located here: /Applications/Autodesk/Maya 201x
2. Next, If there is a no Maya icon present or Maya does not launch correctly, perform a clean uninstall of ALL Autodesk products from the computer using the following steps:
   1. Delete /Applications/Autodesk folder
   2. Delete /Library/Application Support/Autodesk folder.
   3. Open /var/db/receipts/ folder and delete all files that start with com.autodesk, com.Autodesk and com.alias
   4. Delete /Library/Autodesk
   5. Navigate to the folder /Library/Preferences/Flexnet Publisher/FLEXnet and delete the files prefixed with adskflex.
   6. Delete the folder /Users/Username/Library/Application Support/Autodesk
   7. Delete the ~/Library/Autodesk folder

Retry the Maya installation. If it fails after performing the above steps, create in a new local admin user profile and re-install
