Hi Brian
the scripts are not incorrect. They works for almost everyone,
but there is a unknown glitch on you machine,
eventually it is only a "false" return error that fools setup.exe.
My advise is an alternative way to run them and overcome the glitch,
flag the scripts as done and allow you to go on.

Regards
Marco
