Hi Darren,

 

Thanks for the reply….

 

Unfortunately there are no logs being dumped at all…. The Windows intstaller screen literally just flashes for a second and then vanishes, more or less each time they open a new window or app.

 

Any other ideas?

Robert-

If Installer is really doing something, it should generate an MSI*.log file in %temp% (or in %windir\%temp% for per machine installs). I would look in there for a recent one that shows what's going on.

HI All,

 

Strange one…..

 

I have taken over the support of an organisation where the last organisation has made a bit of a pigs ear of the AD deployment. It appears upon discussion with staff that a software deployment of Acrobat reader has been put in at some point and then removed. I also found an old machine with a self built msi package on.

 

Now, while the users are working away an msi installer window just flickers up on the screen and vanishes regularly. This is infuriating for the user base but I can’t seem to nail it down as any reference has been removed from the registry.

 

Any ideas?

 

Cheers,

 

Rob
