    InstallShield Error 1628 cannot complete script based installation


    I am trying to install a program that uses the InstallShield platform but when I launch the program it keeps failing with the error 1628.

    I have tried to register and unregister msiexec.exe, renaming the Installshield folder and running the installer with a clean boot but nothing worked.

    How can I solve this?

    Thanks

    :)

    InstallShield Error 1628

    Hi,

    The Error - 1628: failed to complete installation error that you've encountered may occur if the
    InstallShield application is corrupted or damaged. As an initial step to resolve your concern, we suggest that you rename the
    InstallShield folder by following these steps:

    • Locate the InstallShield folder under the C:\Programs File\Common Files\
    • Right-click the InstallShield folder, and then click
      Rename      .
    • Type InstallShield1, and then press ENTER.
    • Try to install the program.

    Note: Ensure that your account has administrative rights.
