Advanced Installer Tools can be installed only in a Virtual Machine - VMware 12.5.3

Tue Mar 14, 2017 4:07 am

If I try to install the osprovision.exe on a VM created in VMware Workstation 12.5.3 I receive this error message:
Advanced Installer Tools can be installed only in a Virtual Machine.
I am on Windows 10 Insider Preview, build 15055 and Advanced Installer 13.7.

What can I do?

Hello Sergio and welcome to Advanced Installer forums,

This issue is currently under investigation. As soon as I have a conclusive answer, I will get back to you.

Also, can you please tell us if you tried to use another virtual machine? Does the behaviour still persists?

Best regards,
Dan

Hello Carlos,

On the Virtual Machine where you want to repackage the installation, could you please try installing the Advanced Installer Tools manually and let me know if that helps?

You can copy it from your machine, from the following location, into the VM:

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files (x86)\Caphyon\Advanced Installer 20.7\bin
