Fatal error installing bundle (MSI)

Question

I have an MSI file that I built using Admin Studio for Zenworks. I am on ZCM 10.3.3
Running the MSI by itself it works without issue, but if I try to run that bundle from Zenworks, I get a fatal error every time. I tried setting it up as a UNC path, and even uploading the MSI file.
When I look at the windows logs, I see this.
Product: Samsung OfficeServ Communicator -- Error 1310.Error writing to file: C:\Windows\WinSxS\Manifests\x86_Microsoft.VC80.Deb ugCRT_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_8.0.50727.4053_x-ww_d014c028.cat. System error 0. Verify that you have access to that directory.
I checked the directory, took over ownership, and tried again. Still failing. Why is this not working via Zenworks?

Answer 1

Well, you still have Win7 issues, those can be researched.
Process Monitor may help track down the issue.
See who is doing the writing and see who owns the process that is doing
the writing.
