Powershell 7 installation error with BC24

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by BS-09051231-0 6
Hi,
 
 Unfortunately the installation fails because I have PowerShell 7.4.2 installed, which is a newer version compared to PowerShell 7.4.1 which is embedded into the installer:
MSI (s) (30:18) [11:49:14:485]: Product: PowerShell 7-x64 -- A newer version of PowerShell is already installed.
MSI (s) (30:18) [11:49:14:517]: Product: PowerShell 7-x64 -- Installation failed.
MSI (s) (30:18) [11:49:14:517]: Windows Installer installed the product. Product Name: PowerShell 7-x64. Product Version: 7.4.1.0. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: Microsoft Corporation. Installation success or error status: 1603.
 
Is there any way to get around of this issue? (Other than downgrade the PowerShell.)

    I've struggled with that, too. It is a known installation bug that could hopefully be resolved in version 24.2 or 24.3.The solution is simple - uninstall PowerShell 7 from the machine where you want to install Business Central before running the installation using the Control Panel (it will be installed during BC installation).
