Windows 8 Compatibility Issue V5.0.2214.4


Recommended Posts

I have a customer who recently installed a new Windows 8 machine, as with all the other computers in the office (a couple Windows XP and several Windows 7 machines) I installed ESet Endpoint Security 5.0.2126 and everything worked fine.

I saw that version 5.0.2214.4 was released and so I upgraded the office and on all the XP and Windows 7 x64 machines the software installed without a problem. But on the lone Windows 8 x64 machine it will not install giving this error:
Quote:
The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2753.
I re-downloaded the msi x64 installer and tried again (rebooting in between tries) and still got the same error. The very first line of the changelog for 5.0.2214.x says "Added: Windows 8 compatibility" but it seems like added incompatibility is more like it since 5.0.2126 actually seemed to install and work fine on Windows 8 and I reinstalled it with no problem.

Has anyone else seen this problem? Have an idea how to correct it?

Hello

As you write, the Error 2753 is related to a Windows installation failure/issues.My suggestion is maybe not the most profound, but try as per instruction from this knowledge base article to uninstall eset in safe mode by using eset uninstaller tool. Link : How do I manually uninstall my Windows ESET security product? Please notice ,that in the article, there is a link to how to restart windows 8 in safe mode, if you should need it.

I have to agree with Norm@Home. Got the same issue with this Windows 8 compatible Version which is not compatible. I also used the 5.0.2126.3 Version without any problems.
