    <ol> <li><p>Do not take the text of the message literally. About all you should be concluding is that misexec is treating some part of your command as a filename, and it didnt get to load and process the entirity of it to its satisfaction. Whether that's because the path was too long, permissions were refused, or any number of other conditions only limited by your imagination (most of the KB articles appear to pertain to Installer cache issues, which is generally the GUID-based syntax or patching/upgrading options)</p></li> <li><p>You're missing the braces from the GUID, fool. I mean you did know there are braces on the GUID even if <code>msiexec /?</code> doesnt tell you or show you?!</p> <p>i.e. you need to replace <code>FC7445BB-7E1D-4E36-A42A-CFA56263E453</code> with <code>{FC7445BB-7E1D-4E36-A42A-CFA56263E453}</code></p> <p>(I had stopped trusting/reading the outputs and was considering it a possibility that the GUID was resolving to a cached MSI which msiexec was unhappy with for the same reason that it appeared to be unhappy with the installation syntax which is what all the KB articles in this space tend to talk about.)</p></li> <li><p>Your path contains relative jumps which, despite having a net length of &lt;160 chars, have an gross length >160 chars so the underlying file APIs are choking. People like writing generic error messages that are misleading.</p> <p>You can fix it by replacing <code>Identity</code> above with <code>FullPath</code> in each batching expression used.</p> <p>Another way to remedy it is to <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/3457165/11635">use a <code>WorkingDirectory</code> with the <code>Exec</code> of <code>msiexec</code></a></p></li> </ol>

    2. CO@YanSklyarenko Yes, you caught me :D it was either stick it here or stick it on an internal wiki. I find it incredible how little info is out there on msiexec spelunking. Seems all that 'obvious' troubleshooting stuff lives in the minds of the few installer experts out there...

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
