Windows Displays Incorrect Error After Completing or Canceling Installation

Problem

After you complete or cancel the installation process, you see this message from the Windows Program Compatibility Assistant: This program might not have installed correctly.

Workaround

  1. In the Program Compatibility Assistant window where the message appears, click This program installed correctly to close the window without further actions.
  2. If you see this message after canceling the installation, it is probably caused by user account control (UAC) being enabled. Disable UAC:
    1. Access the Control Panel option that manages User Account Control on your version of Windows.
    2. Set the user account to never be notified about changes to your computer.
    Reenable UAC after completing this installation.
  3. If appropriate, restart the installer when you are ready.
