Error creating MSI using MSM
Hi,
I am trying to create a MSI using InstallShield Merge Modules. The error I get looks like this:

(Error 100099. Setup failed to extract support files. Please make sure you are running installation with administrator priviliges.
I am running installation with administrator privileges and I don't understand, how to get rid of this error 😞
I created basic Visual Studio InstallShield Limited project, and put there my merge module files (6 of them), plus Net Framework 4.5 Full.
There is nothing else.
Please help!

Can you provide a verbose install log?
