There's little that can be done if it doesn't want to allow things to run as trying to circumvent it will just exacerbate the problem with the not so smart way that app control appears to work. The only thing is disabling it but I'm not keen on that as a solution (same for doing things like turning off UAC for other problems). Maybe trying to install as a portable install might not have the same issue or by trying to use the x86 build instead if it still won't allow the x64 build to be installed.
