Install attempt brings up Windows installer dialogue

I am attempting an installation without full administrator rights. I don't know if that is relevant or not, but the behavior is odd. None of the installer dialogues appear, and no log file is generated. Instead, a message box listing windows installer command line options appears [attached]. I have also attached my project file. I would appreciate any help you can give me.

Re: Install attempt brings up Windows installer dialogue

Hi,

This happens because a command line in your project is not correct. In your .AIP I saw that in the Media page you written the following command line in the "MSI Command Line" field (“/L*V %temp%\Install.log). The quotes from the beginning of the command line are not placed correctly. Can you please remove them and see if the behavior persists?

Best regards,
