Occurs at the end of the install

can you share me the log.txt, it would be helpful if you also tell the name of the app you were trying to install and your system information (windows version, system arch) also which version of alt app installer were you using

@kejmlch thanks for the info! I have fixed the issue it was produced when the app was logging errors, the error was encoded in different format than the one i was decoding it with, can you check v2.5.8 to confirm if its fixed or not

mjishnu commented 1 year ago

closing this as it should be fixed in v2.5.9
