When installing SmartDisk on a new system, the installation prompts for a non-privileged user account and upon pressing "next", the installation fails with "Installation Failed - The installer has been interrupted" and the setup terminates.
A verbose MSI installer log shows
"The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2896. The arguments are: NV_AuthenticateUser, ,"
Reason:
