I downloaded parallel_studio_xe_2016_composer_edition_for_fortran_setup.exe on my windows 7 64 bit desktop and the installation is not successful saying that only dos command will work instead of GUI. I think the problem might arise from the software compatibility because I have windows 7. Should I download an older version or do something else? What is your suggestion? Thanks,

Was the download an evaluation or a licensed version? If the former, regardless of your OS version the Visual Studio GUI will not be installed. If you want to use the GUI during an evaluation, you have to have some version of Visual Studio (Professional or Community, not Express) installed prior to installing Intel Fortran.

The download is a licensed version. So it should include some visual studio itself. Then I should install it like every other software but it does not work. What could go wrong? Thanks,

I think it will be useful for you to see the pre-requisite issues summary appeared in the installation. I cancelled the installation after seeing the summary.
Intel(R) parallel studio XE2016 composer edition for Fortran Windows*
Pre-requisite issues summary
Intel® Visual Fortran Compiler will be installed only with command line build environment support
Intel® Visual Fortran Compiler requires that Microsoft Visual Studio* 2010, 2012, 2013, or 2015, or Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows* 8.0, 8.1 should be already installed for full operation mode. With Microsoft Visual Studio Express Edition* 2010 (for IA-32 only), 2012, 2013, or 2015, or Microsoft Windows SDK* for Windows* 8.0 installed on your computer, you can use Intel® Visual Fortran Compiler only in command line build environment.
You can install a Fortran Integrated Development Environment (IDE) based on Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 Shell*. However, it requires that the Microsoft Windows SDK* for Windows* 8.1 should already be installed and it is not found on your system.
Visit Intel windows SDK for VS2013 Shell (https://software.intel.com/en-us/vs2013shell-windowssdk) for detailed instructions. After the SDK is installed, restart the Intel® Parallel Studio XE installation.
If you select 'Next', only command line build environment will be supported for Intel® Visual Fortran Compiler.
Please refer to the Release Notes (https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-fortran-compiler-160-release-notes) for details.
The Intel(R) Debugger Extension for Intel(R) MIC Architecture cannot be installed.
Installation can continue; however, Intel(R) Debugger Extension for Intel(R) MIC Architecture will not be installed because it requires that Microsoft Visual Studio* 2012, 2013 or 2015 be installed. Refer to the Release Notes for more details.
The Integration(s) in Microsoft Visual Studio* components cannot be installed.
Installation can continue; however, Integration(s) in Microsoft Visual Studio* components will not be installed because they require that a supported Microsoft Visual Studio* be installed. Refer to the Release Notes for a list of the required Microsoft Visual Studio*.

Sorry, looks like we posted near the same time.
If I am reading your interests correctly, you want to use the VS 2013 Shell that is included with the product. To do so requires installing the noted SDK.
Can you install the SDK and then re-try the installation?

In the error message, it mentions that windows SDK for windows 8.* is needed. Since I have windows 7, I really need to download windows SDK for windows 7, right?

I just found out that I have Microsoft Windows SDK v7.1 installed already. In my previous post, the 2016 version is looking for SDK for windows 8.*, which I don't have on my windows 7 machine. So, should I download an older version of the Fortran compiler? Which version will be good? or your suggestions? Thanks,

I can see where the confusion is now. I do not know why the installer is saying this. You do not need to revert to an earlier release. Your OS is supported by the PSXE 2016 release. I verified the messaging about the SDK applying to Win8.1, and thus do not want to install that SDK.
I do not know how soon I can get an answer from our Installation team about how to deal with this. If you can wait I can ask them and get back with you, but it could be Monday before I hear from them. I’d rather not see you revert to an earlier release.

Ok, thank you.
Do you have Windows 7 SP1?
It appears VS2013 shell requires this at a minimum from some other internal defects I found. If not, I can't say whether that contributed to this prerequisite messaging you received.

Ok, thank you. I escalated the issue to our Installation team within our internal tracking system and followed that with an email. I will let you know when I hear something.
I apologize for the inconvenience.

It is all confusing but the Microsoft Windows SDK* for Windows* 8.1 actually does support Windows 7. If you visit the URL for the SDK download in our article noted in the prerequisite details (https://software.intel.com/en-us/vs2013shell-windowssdk), under the System Requirements section, Windows 7 is listed in the Supported Operating Systems details.
Please proceed with the installation of the SDK on your system and then retry the Parallel Studio XE 2016 installation.

I got a recommendation from the premier support and installed a 2013 version Microsoft visual studio community. Then I succeeded in installing the parallel studio XE 2016. Thanks, Kevin, for your help.

You're welcome. Glad to hear this is resolved.
PS - We are reviewing the article cited in the installer messaging to help make this compatibility and need more clear.
