Are you also on a network, connected to a Windows domain? Also, I'm curious about "file.exe". Is that a legit file for Vagrant? Seems like a generic name to me...
I ran into a similar problem installing Git for Windows. That installer also got stuck on a "file.exe" which was also in a /bin/ directory. As with Vagrant, I tried installing to different directories, running the installer as Admin, and checking deep into the directory permissions. Out of desperation, I chose the option to continue with the Git installation, skipping over that file. Either I got lucky, or that file was a phantom error, because I haven't yet run into a problem with Git or Git Bash. At this point, I suspect some sort of problem with a Windows domain security policy, and something to do with writing to a directory with "/bin" in the path name. I know that others have this same problem, there's an earlier thread. Hopefully, someone can help us sort this out...
