Possible Solution
Have you tried to delete both directories before calling the installer? Obviously something failed and the directories exist although scoop is not available in the command line.
I did, but it still did not work
Mmmh, weird. The installer does not create ~\scoop\apps\scoop nor ~\scoop\buckets\main before cloning.
You could try to delete the whole scoop dir: ~\scoop .
Otherwise #57 should fix this issue, too.

It suddenly worked now?
I think the programming gods smiled upon us

It looks like the Scoop execution directory already exists in your environment variables.
It seems that as long as the type is inconsistent during installation, an error will be reported. This is indeed a problem, the exception should be handled, if it is determined that it is caused by type inconsistency.
For some reason, it randomly worked now?
