winget 1.4.2011-preview can't install MSI-based applications #2365
Comments
@manelrodero great detail here. I'll ask the team to dig in on Monday. |
Just tested 1.3.1681 and it works well with MSI: Here is the log:
Note: This post from Broadcom explains that error code 1619 is related to incorrect reference of the MSI file (https://knowledge.broadcom.com/external/article/156944/windows-installer-error-1619-using-softw.html). I hope you can find the problem ;-) |
Thanks for the additional information. I was just about to ask about about the latest 1.3. I doubt there is much difference between the version you tested (1.3.1681) and the 1.3.1872 release candidate. |
Here is the info about 1.3.1872. It works well and can install MSI packages as expected.

I don't know if it will help, I have overridden the parameters (/qf) to see the Google Chrome interface and there is a problem reading the file. If I unblock the Internet file it fails too. And the same error if I double click the downloaded MSI file. I can test the same with PuTTY. Error installing with winget and also executing the MSI: Could it be that this version does not download the files correctly and they are corrupted? |
I wonder if this is related to #2324 |
It is related to #2324, I think SYSTEM needs to be able to explicitly read/write/execute (so Full Control) the MSI for it to work correctly (which makes sense, since Windows Installer's service runs as SYSTEM). Adding SYSTEM to the ACLs fixes it for me. |
100% I would expect any new file access issues to be related to #2324 . Will have to look into why our tests that install MSI don't fail, but I guess I can give |
The same problem for CMake, with the same winget version. Has it been resolved? |
We still need to cut a release with the changes. |
Is it possible to downgrade? Or a source of daily builds perhaps? [Edit] I see they are here: https://github.com/jedieaston/winget-build . Very cool! |
I have been having this same issue with my |
We've merged the fix into the codebase, and we just need to cut a new release. |
I upgraded the version and I can't upgrade now. What should i do? |
I can't find a way to uninstall it. |
cc @xixifaha: You can install https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/releases/download/v1.4.2161-preview/Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller_8wekyb3d8bbwe.msixbundle which has the issue fixed. |
I can't install it when i open the file. |
@xixifaha, I can't translate via the image. Can you copy paste the results or run through a translator? |
Which packages is it trying to open? |
It may be strange but you could try:
It will get to about 90% complete and then it will hang. Just pause there for a minute or so, and the package should get updated. You will need to restart the terminal, but the upgrade should be installed after that. |
After try |
Is this on a Windows Insider build or are you in the Windows Package Manager Insiders group (You would have signed up via an online form)? |
The next thing to try is to download the .msixbundle and the License XML file as well as the VCLibs dependency mentioned in the troubleshooting guide in the "machine wide provisioning" section and running the provisioning command in PowerShell. |
I was in the Windows Package Manager Insiders group. I will try it after i leave the group. |
I was just confirming that you were in the group to ensure |
I was trying to upgrade my winget installation (I had 1.1.12653) to be able to use --architecture with some programs.
After installing latest release available (1.4.2011-preview) I can't install any applications that are MSI-based (like Google.Chrome). Installer failed with error code 1619.
I've I install latest stable version (1.2.10271) I can install it without problems:
