DLL issue when trying in install test complete

I had a version of test complete. I downloaded the newer version (12.41 - 12.42).

During installation it hanged and machine crashed.

 

Now it does not appear in windows uninstaller. I try to run the 12.42 .exe and get the following error. Really need help with this as its on my work machine

Have you tried restoring windows to a previous save point?

Why automate?  I do automated testing because there's only so much a human being can do and remain healthy.  Sleep is a requirement.  So, while people sleep, automation that I create does what I've described above in order to make sure that nothing gets past the final defense of the testing group.

Restore points are not switched on and locked down on works machines so cannot set this up

Surely this is a problem with the installer? It unpacks the .msi and files and when it tries to load the unpacked dll it errors?

 

Desperate for a fix for this. Never seen a program get itself into this mess before

If the machine is locked down hard by your company, it's possible that a virus or malware scanner did not like what it saw and blew things up.  

 

This is probably one of those cases where you may need to get help directly from SmartBear.  Go to https://support.smartbear.com/message/?prod=TestComplete to submit a ticket.
