rodrigo_vda: I had the same issue but it was resolved after uninstalling (I use a uninstaller so it removes all "not actually removed" files).
May I suggerst that you all make sure that after uninstalling this folders don't exist (and if they do, manually delete them):
C:\Program Files (x86)\GOG Galaxy
C:\Program Files\GOG Galaxy
C:\ProgramData\GOG.com\Galaxy
%localappdata%\GOG.com\Galaxy <-- This is the same as "C:\Users\<your username here>\AppData\Local\GOG.com\Galaxy"
Try reinstalling after that.
If that doesn't work:
My uninstaller also registers what a program adds to the registry while it's installing, so here's a list to all registry values that are created while it installs, so after uninstalling, execute Regedit with admin privileges (WARNING: Editing manually the registry is an advanced feature, you COULD break and brick your windows if you delete what you shouldn't) and make sure this keys/values are not there (and manually delete them if you must):

Please note, this next registry entries have user-dependant addresses, so the "S-1-5-21-00000... etc" numbers will be different on your system, and the <username> part would be the usernames on your PC:
