MSI installer will be started on user logon via task scheduler if an installation has failed [solved]

Dear support,

I recognized the following behaviour. If an installtion was aborted for whatever reason, a task scheduler job triggered at user logon is registered that opens the MSI installer.

Is that a desired behavour and is it changeable?

Best regards,

Angelo

Hello Angelo,

This is indeed the expected behavior and I'm afraid it is not changeable.

This is done for scenarios where the setup requires a restart to be done. The scheduled task is created so the setup can resume after the restart.
