I’ve tried the following article: https://docs.uipath.com/studio/standalone/2022.10/user-guide/studio-common-installation-errors but to no avail.

@scott.a,

Check if your system fulfils all prerequisites for installing.

Thanks,
Ashok :slight_smile:

@scott.a

Try running the i staller with admin rights

EEUI - Call to InitializeEmbeddedUI on a UI DLL failed

Second try to disable any antivirus or other protecting softwares and check

Cheers

Thank you @ashokkarale and @Anil_G. I regret to inform you that your suggestions have not had an impact on the situation.
