When running the MSI installer, it failed with error message “This advertised application will not be installed because it might be unsafe. Contact your administrator to change the installation user interface option of the package to basic”

Generally, it’s affected by the configuration of Windows Group Policy. It’s recommended to contact IT service for a better solution.

There is a workaround for this scenario:

  1. Open a CMD window with administrator privilege

  2. Run the following command to install Lenovo XCC Logger Utility with the MSI installer

> msiexec.exe /i <full path of the MSI file> /qb

Example:

> msiexec.exe /i D:\Download\xcclogger-1.0.8.msi /qb

This workaround above may cause the installed MSI installer unable to uninstall using Windows Control Panel. Refer to Installed product does not match the installation source for solution.
