RE: Installing Applications on Network Shares

Hi,

Thank you for the post.

This issue may occur if your shared folder includes a long file name or an
invalid character in a short file name.

Please create a shared folder with a valid short name (such as TEST) and
put the msi installation file into it.

Then verify your domain admin has the privilege to access this shared
folder. Please check both the Security tab and the permission setting on
the Sharing tab to make sure your domain admin has been granted permission
to access this shared folder.

Please take your time to try the above suggestions.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Tim Quan - MSFT
