nRF Connect 5.0 fails to install on Windows 11

[Rei Vilo]

nRF Connect 5.0 crashes after asking to install nrf-device-lib-driver-installer.exe and shows the following cryptic message.

Trying with nrfconnect-setup-4.4.1-x64 raises the same error.

• How to get rif of this error?
• Is there a way to download and install nrf-device-lib-driver-installer.exe manually?

Thank you!

Environment

• nrfconnect-setup-5.0.0-x64.exe
• Windows 11 Pro 23H2 22631.3593
• node-v20.13.1-x64

Hello,

@Nathan Stohs, I recommend creating a new thread detailing all the versions of your environment and setup. This thread was created by another user and hasn't received a response, presumably because their issue has been resolved. You can reference this thread in your new ticket. The issue mentioned in this thread has been reported internally with all details shared in the parent question.

Have you successfully installed the nRF Connect for Desktop, or are you facing any issues? Installing the nRF Connect for Desktop will provide you with the nrf-device-lib-driver.

Kind regards,

Abhijith
