No.

What do you mean by Autodesk's solution? Atlas is a specific data processing software developed by McLaren:

Version 9 has an MSI file, so I thought it would be simpler than Atlas10 which is only in .exe format (I haven't looked into it yet)

Basically, if your software doesn't require a connection to a network share to complete its installation, the error message is probably incorrect and appears for many other software programs when installed using a Local System account (including Autodesk, but quite a few others as well).

Damn! Do you know if this problem occurs on all versions of Windows?
Is there no other way to install it as a package?

Alternatively, if you have a more recent executable version, you can try that one; with WAPT, it doesn't change much in terms of packaging complexity compared to an MSI.
