When pressing "Next" after the screen containing "Select destination folder", the installer gets stuck with a blue spinning loading circle.
I've been waiting over 30 minutes, and the screen has not progressed.
I'm using Windows 10 Pro build 19041

Had the same problem, I managed to install R2020b after performing a Clean Boot (Windows 10).

Do you have admin credentials to install MATLAB?

Yes, I do. Julian's solution of restarting is what I had to do too.
It's probably worth looking into why this is happening. File locks? Other pending installs?
