Seems to be ok if I tried again from a few versions back. But the bit about the verbosity of verbose logs (or the like) stands ... still I'd like a comment on the below just in case ...

I see that it doesn't create its desktop shortcut until "repair" is run. We are not creating the (unadvertised) shortcut in any way that is new; it does exactly what the old ones did. I have looked at a few versions back and their verbose logs and the one from the new package. There is a *lot* of new stuff I've never seen previously in it (like stuff about WIN64DUALFOLDERS). Is this related to any of those recent KB changes? Does any of this affect desktops, shortcuts or ...? I see a bunch of remove/create shortcuts, as I suppose is expected.

Subject: Shortcuts and "full desktops" I noticed that one of my installation packages (which I was internally testing prior to sending it for testing more broadly) seemingly failed to install its shortcuts because there were too many icons on the desktop (in grid mode) already. (I figured this bizarreness out by cleaning some stuff up and trying again.) Is this a known thing? Should I be able to detect it somehow? It seemed that the other files installed and that P&F showed it installed it. It is admittedly unlikely this will affect anything but our testing machines, but I figured it might be good to know.
