Installation error, only get a setup log.

[omuuli]

When i try to install something or run a setup, all i get is an error message saying "Installation failed, please check the setup log and contact the author."

I have included a screenshot to see it exactly.

All answers are appreciated!

I did, and it's showing

4312> 2018-10-12 19:30:50> Unhandled exception: System.OutOfMemoryException: Exception of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' was thrown.
at Squirrel.Update.Program.executeCommandLine(String[] args)
at Squirrel.Update.Program.main(String[] args)

Although i have a ton of free memory left.

what are you try to install? where did you get it?
what is your system spec?

Okay, so, i found a solution, it wasn't my memory, i guess it's something with setup files, here's the video that had a working fix for it (method 3)

Out of memory errors aren't ram, often they are page file, have you altered it at all? It seems you may not have had space in the page file to extract Discord out of its zip file. That isn't normal for the app since I have it installed... I would have remembered.

Is it only discord or all apps? if you haven't altered the page file, try this
right click start button
choose powershell (admin)
type SFC /scannow and press enter
once its completed, copy/paste this command into same window:
Repair-WindowsImage -Online -RestoreHealth and press enter
SFC fixes system files, second command cleans image files, re run SFC if it failed to fix all files and restart PC
