      @conitrade-as Sounds like a problem somewhere in the clipboard stack, I'll look into that.

        @dinhngtu We have one Win11 in production, which dodn't install the new tools, running the previous ones.

        We always get:

        We have rebooted before installing the tools: same issue
        We have run Xenclean before installing: same
        We have run Xenbootfix: same

        Basically we'tried everything. I haven't opened an official ticket yet because the answer here might help others.

          @manilx Can you check if there's a Copy-XenVifSettings task in Task Scheduler and delete it if it exists report back? Normally it's supposed to self-destruct but maybe something went wrong there.

              @manilx What do you see when you run this command from PowerShell?

              schtasks /query /tn Copy-XenVifSettings /hresult ; echo $LASTEXITCODE

                  @manilx Interesting... It's checking for "ERROR: The system cannot find the file specified. -2147024894", which is why it's failing. What if you specified the command this way, with a backslash?

                  schtasks /query /tn \Copy-XenVifSettings /hresult ; echo $LASTEXITCODE

                      @manilx Try installing the .msi from an elevated powershell prompt. That worked for one of our Windows 11 VMs.

                        @conitrade-as Yes, fixed. Thx!

                        The issue on this VM was we were installing as non-admin. All others were admin by default.

                        Good catch
