Try specifying a log path is accessible to all users:

Code: Select all

(installername).exe /qn /L*V "c:\SomeSharedFolder\SPS_Install.log"
As for .NET installer, I just wanted to make sure that the .NET version wasn't the issue.

I did that but it didn't work either.
No log file created.

Isn't it possible to install PowerShell Studio with a workaround?
For example with a small installer that doesn't check all requirements?

At the moment I can't use PowerShell Studio.

Thank you.

Typically, a silent install bypasses the prerequisite installs:

Code: Select all

(installername).exe /exenoui /qn
Unfortunately, we have not been about to reproduce this on any of our test machines but we will continue to try.

Another possibility is that the .NET install is corrupted. Can you try a repair or reinstall of 4.7? I will also look at adding a manual bypass to the installer.

Also check that you have the Visual C++ 2017 runtimes installed (x64 & x86):

We are unable to reproduce this. Can you try installing PowerShell HelpWriter or PrimalSQL to see if you encounter the same issue.

Also, if you have access to another machine on your network, try installing PowerShell Studio on that.
