Cannot install MSFS_SDK_Samples_Installer_0.16.0.0.msi

I’m a complete noob here with using the new SDK, I’m trying to create a new airport, but I’m ■■■■■■■■ from the start. I just downloaded and installed the MSFS SDK Core Installer and was hoping to make life easier by using a sample airport to start with, but with the current version the samples are no longer included, it is now a separate install.

That’s well and good, so I downloaded the MSFS_SDK_Samples_Installer_0.16.0.0.msi file and ran it and then almost immediately received an error message,
“Please install the Microsoft Flight Simulator SDK Core prior to installing its samples.”

Well, der, I did that, and left the install path to the default, yet the samples installer doesn’t seem to find it.

Does anybody know how I can fix this, or is yet another bug that has reared its head in the development of this sim?

Your help is most appreciated, thank you.

Cheers,
Alan

UPDATE:
Problem solved. I was trying to install the samples from a network drive and thought perhaps that might be the issue, so copied the samples installer onto the same drive as the core program and ran the samples installer again, and yeehaa, success!
