Hi,

there is no specific error message. The only issue is, that the de-registration of the VSS-drivers is not successful and therefore the process is on hold and cannot be pushed. so you have to cancel the process-id in the windows task manager and then the installation/deinstallation is corrupted.

thanks for help

best regards Mike

Hi,

I have no idea why de-registration of VSS driver fails. we need more info to debug this issue. can you please get and upload these files when tools installed fails:

1. %temp%/vminst.log

2. %temp%/vmmsi.log

3. C:\windows\temp\vminst.log
