Recently I cleaned (format: c) my computer to make it faster. I reinstalled all software I need for .NET and web development. Suddenly I was stunned with the fact that msi setups are not working\u00a0 on my machine any more!<\/p>\n

I started getting “Installation incomplete” error without extra details.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>But there is a way to enable logging for msi installation process. You just need run this command: “msiexec \/i MySetyp.msi \/l*v mylog.txt”.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>You will get big error log with information like that (full log<\/a> ):<\/p>\n
