Surmise that it detects existing installation of the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (X64) 14.16.27012".

Log Files Indicate Detection of the Installation of "Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (X64) 14.16.27012" which Leads Installer to Throw Error and Shutdown Installation

Solution:

1. Navigate to control panel>Programs and Features
2. Observe installation of "Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (X64) 14.16.27012"
3. Consider dependent program associated with the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (X64) 14.16.27012". Make notes of this uninstall because it could affect a dependent program. In this case, the installation date with about a month ago at about the same time that Visual Studio itself was installed with no other known dependent programs (might need to uninstall, reinstall). I do not use Visual Studio very often (and might need to uninstall/reinstall it).
4. Proceed to uninstall "Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (X64) 14.16.27012"
5. Right click on TableauDesktop-64bit-2018-3-3.exe and select "Run as Administrator"
6. Watch installer start humming with nice gui representation of progress
7. Smile when the install completes successfully
