I just downloaded and installed the Microsoft Web Platform Installer 5.0 and when I hit run it pops the following error message

'=' is an unexpected token. The expected token is ';'. Line 45, position 288

Can anybody explain what is this?

I'm on Windows 10 x64

I went to

Control Panel -> Programs and Features, right-clicked "Web Platform Installer" and chose "Repair"
