Installshield This Installation Cannot Be Run By Directly Launching The Msi Package
When you need to install a program as an administrator, you can right-click on the .exe file and select Run as administrator. However, that option isn’t available for MSI packages. We will show you how to add an Install as administrator option for MSI packages.
To add the Install as administrator option to the context menu for MSI packages, right-click on the Start button and select Run from the command menu, if you’re using Windows 8.1. If you’re using Windows 7 or another earlier version, select Run from the Start menu.
For more information view my blog post at http://bateru.com/news/2012/03/simple-fix-for-msi-windows.
NOTE: You can also press the Windows key + R to access the Run dialog box.
Enter “regedit” (without the quotes) in the Open edit box and click OK.
If the User Account Control dialog box displays, click Yes to continue.
NOTE: You may not see this dialog box, depending on your User Account Control settings.
Navigate to the following key:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTMsi.Packageshell
Right-click on the shell key and select New Key from the popup menu.
The new key is added as a sub-key under shell. Rename it to “runas” (without the quotes).
Right-click on the Default value in the right pane and select Modify from the popup menu.
NOTE: You can also double-click on Default to edit its value.
On the Edit String dialog box, enter “Install as &administrator” (without the quotes) in the Value data edit box and click OK.
Now, you need to add a sub-key to the runas key. Right-click on the runas key and select New Key from the popup menu. Rename the sub-key “command” (without the quotes).
Select the command sub-key and double-click Default in the right pane to edit its value. On the Edit String dialog box, enter the following in the Value data edit box:
msiexec /i “%1”
Click OK.

Now, when you right-click on an MSI installation package file, the Install as administrator option is available.
When you select the Install as administrator option, the User Account Control dialog box may display, as shown at the beginning of this article, depending on your UAC settings.

Hi Guys, i have a package i am trying to install via SCCM (which users system) that will not launch under the SYSTEM user. I have invoked psexec and run the setup as system, i have also tried via a application deployment, both simply do not launch. App runs fine under administrator, but not system. Under system it launches, installs vcredist and then just falls over. I have tried preinstalling the vcredist and it makes no difference. Does anyone have any idea how i can see why this is failing? I have tried looking through procmon but cant make heads or tails of it. ANy help would be appreciated.
edit:
Here is some info : the app is IDL-ENVI http://www.exelisvis.com/ProductsServices/ENVIProducts.aspx
setup64.exe /? gives me: http://i.imgur.com/Bxi2xLa.png

this is the contents of the install folder: http://i.imgur.com/mMIQeQa.png

This is setup64.exe /debugmode from SYSTEM user: http://pastebin.com/4vEEKW3D
This is setup64.exe /debugmode from ADMIN user: http://pastebin.com/FPbjnnRf
setup64.exe cant be extracted any further with 7zip
This is excluding all answer files, this is just launching setup64.exe from an elevated command prompt as system and administrator
edit: this issue is explained here:
Can anyone think of a workaround?
