I've searched around but none of the "fixes" I've found have worked (running installer .bat manually, alternate mirrors, etc). Any help or other resources would be greatly appreciated. Every time I run the installer I get the normal fluff log output with this at the end before it crashes:

You shouldn't need to install any other tools sets like Cygwin, etc to install TexLive. Is the problem that you are not running TeXLive's version of "untar," and the version you did run has different command line options or whatever?

@alephzero I tried installing before I had any of those separate tools (Cygwin etc) downloaded and got the same error. One more thing, with the tools installed I did install a working version of TeX Live 2017 from the historical repository.

Let's see ... this has worked (for me) most of the time:
Let's go to the
executemenu and type%temp%and delete ALL ... the same from the "administrator" account, that is, we clean the system's temporary ones and the failed installation folders inC:Download (compress file) from install-tl.zip and unzip it.
- We enter the folder and with the right mouse button on
install-tl-advancedwe click using "run as administrator" ... - You wait between one and two hours and ... ready..HapyTex
If this happens to fail ... download dvd version and repeat the steps ... always keeping in mind that we must have permission to administer the installation.
