If it really is the 1625 returned for the policy error, it looks like the DisableMSI policy at the system or user level. Other policies can matter too, maybe DisableBrowse if it's associated with the source location as the log seems to indicate.

Hello, this is more an MSI than WiX related issue but I have seen many general MSI question with good answers, so I try this also. I have an msi installation that exits with error 1625, but only on a small number of machines. The same installation file works well on all others. Here is the relevant log file part (sorry for the german, it was a german OS where we have the problem): MSI (s) (48:8C) [11:15:01:985]: Note: 1: 2343 MSI (s) (48:8C) [11:15:01:985]: Entering CMsiConfigurationManager::SetLastUsedSource. MSI (s) (48:8C) [11:15:01:985]: Note: 1: 2720 2: 2 MSI (s) (48:8C) [11:15:02:032]: Note: 1: 1729 MSI (s) (48:8C) [11:15:02:032]: Product: MyProduct -- Configuration failed. MSI (s) (48:8C) [11:15:02:032]: Das Produkt wurde durch Windows Installer neu konfiguriert. Produktname: MyProduct. Produktversion: 1.3.2.5. Produktsprache: 1033. Erfolg- bzw. Fehlerstatus der neuen Konfiguration: 1625. MSI (s) (48:8C) [11:15:02:032]: MainEngineThread is returning 1625 MSI (s) (48:68) [11:15:02:048]: No System Restore sequence number for this installation. Systemrichtlinien verhindern diese Installation. Wenden Sie sich an den Systemadministrator. So the error message is pointing to system policy, but so far we found no cause of the error. We allready searched a lot, and even compared the "local security settings" with a machine were there is no error, but could not find any hint what change or "setting" causes this error. It is also strange that reinstalling the os on a machine that has this error "fixed" the problem. May be someone on the list had similar problems and found a solution for this or could give a pointer to the root cause of this error?
