There’s no mention of it anywhere, but the file “quaddUninstall.exe” needs .NET 4 to run. Maybe other files use .NET too, but the installer fails at that point anyway with an unknown error.
It would be nice if this prerequisite was mentioned somewhere because there’s no way of telling why the installation failed otherwise.
When the installation fails it also unnecessarily deletes the 1.78GB of files it just downloaded. Kind of a big deal when I can only download at 250KB/s. I made sure I backed them up the second time. :)
The relevant log output which is pretty cryptic…
