Trying to install houdini launcher ,
it was working before I've tried to update the launcher , now It won't work anymore.

The log file doesn't exist

Output folder: C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Launcher Extract: Uninstall Houdini Launcher.exe Extracting files... Installing Microsoft C Run-Time Libraries (this could take several minutes) Installing Houdini Server... Failed to install hserver. Process exited with code -1073741502. See log file "C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Launcher\logs\install-hserver.log" for details.

Thank you
Johnny

From my test this is related to my CPU being old , and houdini 20.5 latest only acepts newer CPUs

just running into the same problem here. My CPU is old but I'd happily work on an older version. If I can't get past the launcher then I guess I need to look at using the old installer.
