Installing on Win10 x64 with MSI automation
I have a few issues when trying to do an automated install of PDF X-Change Editor using the MSI installer.
Running the command "Msiexec.exe /i EditorV6.x64.msi /qb- /norestart KEYFILE="\\unc\path\to\xcvault file" result in an error during installation of the PDF Printer part:
Windows complains about "The printer driver is not compatible with a policy enabled on your computer that blocks NT 4.0 drivers".
After the install, the license file have not been adapted into the program, and I have verified that the file exists.
Anyone with clues how to fix this?
EDIT: Added x64 to the MSI file, as i am using the 64bit installer

Hello Christensen Kjærulff,
Thanks for the post and report. I have to pass this to a colleague from the Canadian office to look at. It's still the middle of the night there - so we will post back here in this topic once we have further advise, but this will happen a bit later!
Regards,
Stefan

Re: Installing on Win10 x64 with MSI automation
First of all, about the key file - the path specified in KEYFILE property should be available and accessible for the account which is used for installation. Please check that this share is available for all required accounts.
In regards driver installation issue: can you please add an option LOGINSTALL="1" to the command line, and send us a file prninstaller.log that can be found in user's (or system's) temp folder ?

Hello Christensen,
This is a known case. The issue is caused by a system bug. You have an interim version of a system file. Microsoft has already fixed it.
See here for details.

I can confirm that using the reset feature of Windows 10 to completely reinstall the OS will trigger this error.Roman - Tracker Supp wrote:Hello Christensen,

However, updating to latest official build did not fix the issue for me, the systemfile does not seem to get updated.
Tried copying the file from a working windows 10, but that did not seem to work (regsrv32 doesnt work on this file either)
Windows 10 build: 15063.447

Hi christensen,
Did you try downloading from the link in the KB article, or did you just use Windows Update? If the latter, please try installing the update via the link in the KB.

Re: Installing on Win10 x64 with MSI automation SOLVED
Yes I did, it just told me "thank you for updating".
However, I found a solution that might be helpfull for others that experience this error.
This is what I did.:
Install PDF XChange editor, no errors and the PDF printer was installed.
However, I found a solution that might be helpfull for others that experience this error.
This is what I did.:
- Renamed C:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3\mxdwdrv.dll to mxdwdrv.old (always use rename incase it didnt work and you want the original file back)
- Found a file with same name in one of the GUID subfolders of c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64
- Verified the file version (10.0.15063.138) differed from the faulty one (10.0.15063.0)
- Copy the file to C:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3
Install PDF XChange editor, no errors and the PDF printer was installed.

Re: Installing on Win10 x64 with MSI automation
Thanks for this, it really helped.
I had the same problem after having to run the windows recovery.
The knowledgebase article solutions didn't help - perhaps it needs to be updated with these added as a hint?

Hello adiebriggs,
Glad to hear this helped you as well!
As this is more of an issue on Microsoft's side - I would rather not include this in the ticket, but will have a discussion with colleagues in the team, and if it is found useful - we will update the KB article!

Stefan
