Why minitab install fails and give error on window 7?

Sometimes problem with programs installing can be triggered by a corruption of the installer or extracted files from the installer. This reasons the 1722 error, which might reason users to be unable to install or uninstall the program.

The greatest way to solve this issue is, use IObit's uninstaller to remove the corruption program with either the normal uninstall technique or also you can apply the Forced Uninstall method.

Another alternative way is to use Microsoft’s FixIt: Program Install and Uninstall.
