We had the same issue and found a solution, by simply changing the task version from 2 to 3 in the settings of the Advanced Installer Build Action in devops...
We think, we were able to find the root cause for this behavior: The customer had installed an old version of our product (with all features) on the affected machine before. There were still some files left that were not uninstalled properly. After we deleted those files, the installer worked as ...
a customer of our product reported a behavior that we cannot reproduce in our environment, maybe you have any ideas:

you were totally right. I didn't know that you could change the theme per build. Thank you very much for your help!
Now, only the bug using the "indirection" option still exists, leading to having to change the fonts for every single page, but at least there's a workaround :-)
are you sure, you actually built the setup or used the "Test Installation UI" option? I built the setup with different machines and used different machines for running the setup. The result is always the same: The background is black.
