3 years ago Additionally, this error appears if you try to Uninstall the application via Control Panel or Apps:
You can also work around this by launching the MSI from Command Prompt or PowerShell and then selecting "Remove" from the prompt and the issue does not appear.

2 years ago yeah, but compiling an app as user installable when default install path is program file is a big mistake. This msi should have an administrator manifest.
As stated in the title, attempting to launch the MSI directly from File Explorer on a Local Administrator account will produce an error stating the installation has been restricted by an Administrator.
You can work around this by launching "Driver Automation Tool.msi" from a Command Prompt or PowerShell prompt (launched as Local Administrator) does not produce this error and installation can proceed.
