Why do I get "toolbox cannot be installed because it is not a valid toolbox file" when trying to install with a mltbx file? Using Matlab R2018b trying to install Machine Vision Toolbox

One of my users is now having this same problem. 200+ people can install the toolbox using the *.mltbx file, but he keeps getting an error "Toolbox cannot be installed because it is not a valid toolbox file". However, the file is valid, so there's another issue.

We have the same issue on a customer environment with MATLAB R2019b. Any hints what is the reason for this error? Files are being copied to the Add-Ons installation folder during installation process but finally this error occurs. The MATLAB log files doesn't contain any hints or errors.
