Installation Errors

The installer is accessing protected resources requiring Administrator rights, which is expected, and those are triggering AppVerifier 331B errors. If the installing user does not have administrative rights the Setup will fail and this is correct, expected behavior.

Application Data

The following files are left behind after FPSMC is uninstalled. These files are considered application data that should be preserved after an uninstallation.

%Program Files%\Microsoft Forefront Protection Server Management\Services\Redistribution\Cache\Engines\metadata\201008090001\engineinfo.cab
%Program Files%\Microsoft Forefront Security\Server\Server Management\Services\Redistribution\Cache\Engines\metadata\universalmanifest.cab

D:\Program Files\Forefront Protection Server Management\Diagnostics\FSSMCInfo.zip

The following registry keys are left behind after FPSMC is uninstalled. These files are considered application data that should be preserved after an uninstallation, to allow an administrator to allow upgrades.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Forefront Server Security\PrivKey]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Window s\CurrentVersion\Installer\Folders]
