The dvcvideo64.inf has 2304:021A for the hardware identifier. And being an MSI, I would expect it to create an entry in Programs and Features control panel. Paul |

I don't have much to add. The Corel page seems to think the MSI does it all. https://support.corel.com/hc/en-us/a...ns-with-Studio The MSI file probably uses msiexec. And it has command line parameters. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7...n-msi-log-file It should have both install and uninstall options. Certain MSI errors are "place-holders" that are used when the real error code cannot "percolate" up the chain. As a result, they're a kind of "something happened" error code, and are useless for diagnosis. You can sometimes look at the INF file and see what it's up to. What services it sets up and so on. In WinXP, you could use the setupapi.* stuff to get some info. The files on later OSes still exist, but may not have the same details shown. Paul |

(Error code 0x3EE: The volume for a file has been externally altered so that the opened file is no longer valid.) So the error is not 1603, it's 1006 (0x3EE). Do you have an AV running ? The log is not specific, that it actually created that amd64_neutral file. I was thinking maybe it had spotted an old one. But maybe that's not the case. If I was there, I would: 1) Temporarily disable AV. Some have a setting where they will be disabled for 10-15 minutes while you work. 2) Use sysinternals.com Process Monitor, don't set any filters, just let it log. 3) Run the install. 4) Go to the File menu in Process Monitor, and untick the capture tick mark. That stops the trace. Look for access to MarvinAVS64.inf, see if there was a CreateFile request for marvinavs64.inf_amd64_neutral_233b261c4fe7c577 folder and so on. To verify the installer really is writing a new copy there for some reason. Because when the rollback happens, all sorts of stuff could be removed before you can look at it. When msiexec runs, it should auto-elevate and have a UAC prompt, to give permission to run as Administrator. I don't expect "Run as Administrator" would really help. HTH, Paul |

Unfortunately it also uninstalled the drivers. I downloaded the driver installation from Pinnacle and tried that. The installation proceeded partway and then I was greeted with a message The wizard was interrupted before Pinnacle Video Driver could be compleely installed. You system has not been modified.

I don't know if it will help or even if it is readable. The best leverage comes when you work on it at your end, because you can see interesting stuff faster than I can. The MSIEXEC should be using the TrustedInstaller token when installing. TrustedInstaller is not a full account - id does not have a home directory. But it is an item in SID-world. And TrustedInstaller "owns" C:\Program Files. The whole process should have no problem putting files there if it wants. When you see attempts to access stuff like that, it could be "for real" or could be "bogus". Say a developer is lazy, and leaves some old info in the MSI manifest. MSI manifests are very complicated. It's likely easy to screw them up. Maybe the behavior seen is crucial to making it work. Or the behavior is bogus, and if you could "get past" the error, it would have worked. Unfortunately, you already tried using the INF directly, and it told you you cannot install it that way. And I don't understand why that is, well enough to hand-craft a hack for it. I'll look at your ZIP, but it's unlikely I'll be able to see a "theme" as to why it is fouling up. I'm not aware of a "secret decoder ring" for MSI stuff. MSIexec is great when it works. And not so great when it doesn't. Paul |

Does the area on the disk in question now exist ? Or is there no evidence that anything worked ? If I knew of a way to run msiexec in a compatibility mode, I'd have suggested that by now... Paul |
