Method 2: Copy the installation files to your computer or to other removable mediaWhen you do this, note the location, and then run the installer from that location. The installation file is typically named Autorun.exe or Setup.exe, but this may vary. If you're not sure, check the Readme file in the folder for instructions about how to run the installation process. If an executable file (.exe) is available, we do not recommend that you run .msi files directly without specific instructions from the vendor.Note If multiple CDs or DVDs are required, we recommend that you copy all the disks to the same folder, in reverse order (higher disk numbers first). Be prepared to approve the overwriting of existing files if you are prompted, and then install from that location.

If you need to install a program or package on a client's computer, but don't want anyone to tamper with the installation, you must run the MSI in silent mode. Silent installations don't use a graphical user interface, so you can also use them to deploy packages on computers in your business too without bothering your employees. You can run a silent installation in Windows 7 by invoking Windows Installer with a command line option.
If you are a network administrator, you can deploy GitHub Desktop to computers running Windows on an Active Directory-managed network by using the Windows Installer package file (.msi) with Group Policy or another remote installation system.
The Creative Cloud products utilize a proprietary product to install software on end-user Computers. The Creative Cloud Packager wraps that installer inside an MSI file on Windows and a PKG file on Macintosh for a more native experience. The majority of the error logging is handled by our proprietary installer. The section below covers the installation troubleshooting steps for packages created by the Creative Cloud Packager.
Selecting a 64 bit package does not install only 64 bit products. Many of our products are still 32 bit and will install the 32 bit version. Some of the products install the 32 and 64 bit version of our software. You change the executable you want to run after the installation. The video products (Adobe Premiere, After Effects, Audition, Prelude, and SpreedGrade) are 64 bit only.

Richard - that workaround seemed to work well and I was able to install the package. Thank you very much. If you or anyone ever comes across a permanent configuration solution to allow admins the ability directly to install .msi packages on Server 2008 R2, please post back. For now, the solution you posted works well.
One of our customers has a 2011 SBS Premium, and since last December any and all Windows Updates failed, and any and all .msi packages could not be installed / uninstalled ("Windows Installer error - This installation package could not be opened")
Before you start editing the MSI file, you need to create a transform to apply during the installation. Per best practice guidelines, you should never edit an MSI package directly. Instead, generate a transform that will apply the customizations to avoid a broken installation. Navigate to the menu bar and go to Transform > New Transform.
Although there are numerous MSI packages with different properties, shortcuts, and directories, the customization process is essentially the same. The benefit of using Orca to generate transforms is that it eliminates the need for lengthy batch scripts that perform actions such as deleting shortcuts and editing the Windows Registry to disable settings post-installation.
For the last Windows installation method, the popular software package manager for Windows called Chocolatey has an Azure CLI package. To deploy the Azure CLI on many computers at once or introduce installation as part of a larger automation script; Chocolatey is a good choice.
You can customize the Citrix Workspace app installer by specifying different command-line options. The installer package self-extracts to the system temp directory before launching the setup program. The space requirement includes program files, user data, and temp directories after launching several applications.
Create custom transform files if you require more than one custom installer with different property values. For example, create one transform file that sets the default language to French and another transform file that sets the default language to Spanish. You can then apply each transform file to the installation package separately. The result is that you create two installers, one for each language.
Occasionally,the Rcmdr package will fail to load properlyin macOS. When this problem occurs, the cause is almost alwaysthe failure of the tcltk package to load --TheRcmdr package depends on the tcltkpackage. You can confirm this diagnosis by trying to load the tcltkpackage directly, in a fresh R session, issuing the command library(tcltk)at the Rcommand prompt.
Citrix does not recommend extracting the Receiver (Enterprise) .msi files instead of running the installer packages. However, there might be times when you have to extract the .msi files from CitrixReceiver.exe or CitrixReceiverEnterprise.exe manually, rather than running the installer package (for example, company policy prohibits the usage of .exe files). If you use the extracted .msi files for your installation, using the .exe installer package to upgrade or uninstall and reinstall might not work properly.
