Troubleshooting

If the install fails, exits with a non-zero code, or leaves no trace on the target machine, work through the checks below. Most issues come down to permissions, paths, or exit code handling.

Run as administratorMake sure Command Prompt or PowerShell is opened as Administrator. This installer writes to a machine-wide location and will fail silently without elevated permissions.
Verify the installer file nameConfirm that the installer file name matches the command shown in this guide: XP8K3X7G6M37NX.10.2.0.X86.exe.
Run from the correct folderRun the command from the folder that contains the installer file. For batch or PowerShell deployments, place the script and installer in the same folder.
Check exit codesIf the installer returns a non-zero exit code, review the installer log or your deployment tool's logs. Some packages use additional success exit codes.
Restart if requiredIf the application does not appear immediately after installation, sign out and sign back in, or restart the device — this refreshes Start menu shortcuts, file associations, and Path entries written by the installer.
Validate detection rulesIf your deployment tool reports the app as not installed, verify that the detection rule matches the installed version, MSI product code, registry key, or file path. Use the Detection Rules section above to confirm whether the application was installed successfully.

Deployment recap

Before you roll DWG FastView - CAD Viewer and Editor out to production, confirm you have:

  • The silent install command, run from an elevated prompt
  • The matching silent uninstall command for rollback
  • The detection rule wired into your deployment tool

Got all three? You’re ready to deploy at scale. If this guide saved you time, fuel the next one:
