Hello @nagarwal,

I've just checked your log. In log file named "Qlik_Sense_May_2022_20220728161722_016_ServiceDispatcher.log" if you search "value 3" you will find the exact reason why it's failing:

Product: Qlik Sense Service Dispatcher -- Disk full: There is not enough disk space on the volume 'C:' to continue the install with recovery enabled. 1,650,156 KB are required, but only 1,140,364 KB are available. Click Ignore to continue the install without saving recovery information, click Retry to check for available space again, or click Cancel to quit the installation.

So you would need more space available on your C Drive.

Hi @nagarwal,

In that case it means the installation didn't manage to rollback after the upgrade/installation failed.

You would need to follow below article:
