MacOS Monterey Sophos endpoint client installation failed

Tried installing Sophos client on my MAC pro with Monterey OS and keeps giving me failed installation error.

I have tried the steps in this article: Sophos Endpoint Mac Installation Failed however still does not install, any further help would be appreciated.

Just to confirm, i have tried moving the installation folder to the home directory as well as other directories.

Have tried going into recovery mode and following the process described on the link provided.

I have also run the Sophos installer directly from the package contents on the Macos folder of the app file.

    Based on this, it looks like the files the installer package is looking for are not available. Could you try downloading a new installer, as Jaime suggested below?
