There appears to be an erroneous message in the MSI installer when a fatal error occurs.

Expected behavior

The MSI installer should show the location of the corresponding log when it fails

Actual behavior

The MSI installer may not show the location of the corresponding log when it fails

Additional Environment data

For extra context, the content of the MSI log file is below. I believe the root cause of the error is a health issue on the server and not related to PSU itself.

Error 1923. Service 'PowerShell Universal' (PowerShellUniversal) could not be installed. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to install system services.

This error is correct as that location may contain more information about why the install failed. That said, I can enhance this message to also reference the MSI log.
