In a modern computer with SSD C: drive, the SSD disk will last longer without thrashing by using a ram disk for temporary files (faster too). So I recommend that Oracle engineers fix this issue (installation with ram disk windows TEMP directory) to keep up with modern times.
Installation of other modern software works just fine with a ram disk TEMP directory including LibreOffice and VMWare player. However, I will offer my advice that the error message VirtualBox MSI installer issues is not a Microsoft problem just because Microsoft makes the MSI installer tool. When I switched from a Windows TEMP directory on my ram disk (R:\TEMP) to C:\TEMP, VirtualBox installation worked just fine. This may indicate a problem with this package. The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. The system cannot open the device or file specified
This thread solved my problem with installation of VirtualBox-6.0.10-132072-Win.exe (I tried older versions of Virtualbox too with same error) on Windows 10 host.
