"InstallScript setup launcher unicode has stopped working"
I created an installscript installer using InstallShield 2013 Pro which is distributed to our users.

 

One of our users is getting the error message: "Install script setup launcher unicode has stopped working" at the beginning of the install (after the maintain/update screen).

 

The error from the event viewer is as follows:

We have made sure that the following folders exist on their machine:

 

1. C: > Users > ("Yourname" Windows account ) > My Documents

 

2. C: > Users > ("Yourname" Windows account ) > AppData > Local

 

3. C: > Users > ("Yourname" Windows account ) > AppData > Roaming > Microsoft > Windows > Start Menu > Programs > Startup

 

4. C: > Users > Default > Documents

 

5. C: > Users > Default > AppData > Roaming > Microsoft > Windows > Start Menu > Programs > Startup

 

I'm not sure how to proceed from here and the customer is currently unable to install the update. Any suggestions?

 

Thank you,

  • Roman,

     

    Thank you for your help. We had our user try this (created a temp folder with full permissions, copied installer to that folder, also ran as admin), but unfortunately they still get the same error. Any other suggestions?
  • Roman,

     

    Thank you!! That did indeed work, for two of our customers. I very much appreciate your help.

  • Well, this worked for some people, but now we have a few customers still having the problem. For these customers we have made sure the mentioned system folders are there; we have also run the install under a brand new admin login. They are all on Windows 7. Do you have any other suggestions for places to look?

     

    Thank you again!

    I will try that, thank you. "

     

    Was this ever solved? I had no problems with 2013, but I've upgraded to 2014, and now I see the error "Setup Launcher Unicode Has Stopped Working" when running the installer on Windows Server 2008.
