When installing an MSI, the windows package provider passes the package source parameter to msiexec.exe. Unfortunately, it bmust/b use backslashes, otherwise, msiexec thinks it's a command line argument and will fail with a cryptic error: preFailed to install: Fail on INT 24./pre
The windows package provider should automatically convert the source to backslashes so that it just works.
