Installations hangs after accepting the license agreement
Question / Problem
During the installation, I can't get past the license agreement page. Whenever I do, the installer just stalls and doesn't proceed.
In the Windows Event log, I found matching entries for the LicenseManager.exe reporting an error code 0xc06d007e.
Answer / Solution
For all we know so far, this issue seems to be caused by defects in the system itself. It might affect other applications as well.
To fix it, you might try to (please check the installation after each step):
- Restart the system.
- Check for pending/available Windows updates
- Download and run the Microsoft .NET Framework Repair Tool
- Download and reinstall .NET Framework 4.8
- Open a command line prompt (Win+R -> CMD -> Ok) and run
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth - Open a command line prompt (or use the same as before) and run
sfc /Scannow - Uninstall KB5011048 from the system (how to)
- Check for updates again or install KB5011048 manually again
