jvintzel Which log you are looking for ? Also can let me know where to file feedback hub item ?

Moreover , i also tried with factset application and i am getting installation failure error .

This time its to do with The Path VFS\Windows\Help not found (0*80070002)

Amit Kumar If the help directory was not captured in the package, you can either delete the helpdirectory attribute from the com element or add the windows\help paths to your package.

I recommend deleting the helpdirectory attribute.

In future versions of the tool, this will likely swap to be a warning in the package creation and auto comment out the help directory attribute.

Thanks!

  As you told if we keep as part of tool it would be helpful.
