Unable to install Qlik Sense Desktop

[#1]

One of my colleagues has Qlik Sense Desktop installed on her PC.

It's time to install the latest version of the application however the update is failing.

(June 2017 Update)

We have run updates in the past with no issue.

She has admin rights on the PC.

We have tried uninstalling the application and starting from the beginning but the install still fails.

I have attached the error log

Any suggestions?

I hesitate to tell you the answer, Mathew.  I found this fix:

Re: Installation problem (always rolls back)

It involves a temporary alteration to one line in the Registry; change back afterwards.

I get similiar error as well. Tried the regedit  as well.  Still get error applying execute package

Should it install the package itself before patch "Qlik Sense Desktop June 2017 Patch 2 setup" ?

Never seen a product fail like this to install on windows 7

Hi, Justin,

I have to leave your question open for more experienced users to answer.  It was largely by luck that I found the earlier trick with the registry, and I don't know where I'd be if it hadn't worked.

I hope a clever person who understands the data load can help!

Best wishes,

Steve

Thanks Steve,

What I did was download the MS NetFrame work 4.5 myself from MS website. (NetFx452Full) dotNetFx45_Full_setup.exe. 

Even though I have already  believe had full version.  Installed that first.

Than I read the documentation on server.exe install. 

Assumed the desktop may also have similar parameters override by command line exists. 

The override parameter to pass :-

.\Qlik_Sense_Desktop_setup.exe -installdir  (As admin)

So -installdir override is better than regedit.

So it finally worked after doing the above.

I possible believe the install of the  dotNetFx45_Full_setup.exe was the issue.

So now installed desktop success.

Thanks for your help.
