SharePoint 2019 Installation problem in SharePoint Workflow Manager - sharepoint

I am facing issue "Downloaded file failed system verification and may have been tampered with" while installing new Work flow manager. I have tried through Web Platform Installer and also tried by offline webpicmd but still issue is there.
I am attaching screen shot below:

Please check this link https://fixingsharepoint.blogspot.com/2021/02/download-file-failed-signature.html. I found solution in it.
All you have todo is get the Workflow_Manager.msi file and from powershell prompt (in the same directory you have Workflow_Manager.msi file) and try this
./Workflow_Manager.msi IACCEPTEULA=yes WEBPI=1

Error trying to install node.js(v15.3.0) on Windows 10 from nodejs.org

When I try to install node.js from the installer that I have downloaded from website nodejs.org I get error message "An error occurred while attempting to create the directory: C:\Users\User\Appdata\Roaming"
I have listed the possible causes and solutions. Please try them.
Causes:
Permissions or user profile issues can cause this issue.
If Windows Defender thinks the installer is unfriendly it may prevent the creation of files and folders.
Solution:
First, check to see if Windows Defender is preventing the creation of the folder. Open Windows Defender Security Center and navigate to the following:
Click Virus & threat protection.
Click Virus & threat protection settings.
Scroll down to Controlled folder access and temporarily switch to
the OFF position.
Try the installation again.
If none of these work, visit this link where a similar question was asked.

Windows sometimes puts msi path record in \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products\. How to disable that option?

I have a problem with msi installer.
Some users have problem with updating my application via msi because they got error that msi cannot find remote path.
I know how to fix it. All i need to do is remove record from \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products\ and it fixes the problem.
But i don't know how it happens that some users have record there and how to block windows from putting it there.
Including screen of error for visualization , but it's in polish :)

Can't Uninstall Sharepoint Application - Invalid State

Our Sharepoint 2013 Application failed to install and is stuck in a odd state. I followed the recommended approach for deleting the application using powershell commands on the hosted Sharepoint server, but it doesn't execute properly.
Visual Studio Deployment/Retract Reports:
Skipping the uninstall step because the app for SharePoint is in an invalid state and cannot be uninstalled.
PowerShell Commands
$instances = Get-SPAppInstance -Web http://mysite/sites/collection
$instance = $instances | where {$_.Title -eq 'Application.Title'}
Uninstall-SPAppInstance -Identity $instance
Executing this PS command throws...
The System Account cannot perform this action.
There is no option from the Sharepoint UI to remove the application, and retrying the install also fails. I've tried other user accounts to execute this powershell command (other than the system account), but no dice. I will have to delete the developer site collection if there is no other solution.
I'm faced this problem before on my Office 365 SharePoint Online when deploy SharePoint Hosted App. Then I submit Microsoft Service request and work with MS Technical Support Team on this issue. This problem seem to be something error in SharePoint backend database by itself (I'm not sure to consider it is SharePoint defect).
Did you check the app details installation error report? If you get the message:
"The content database on the server is temporarily unavailable."
Need help: Error 'Install App for SharePoint': An instance of this App already exists at the specified location., I'm quite not understand the answer but there is one comment from Jeremy Thake which seem to be deleted on this thread, he said that:
"…so I actually just restarted the whole environment and when Windows
came back up and I went to the SharePoint Site…the App was gone ;-)"
So here is my advice before you commit to delete your site collection:
Try to deploy your to the another developer site collection and check whether this problem still occur as the same.
Try to increase your app version or change app name/title/id and deploy to the same site collection and check whether this problem still occur as the same to your new app instance.
For SharePoint Server, try to restart IIS/Window Server if you're able to do that. Also install any latest SharePoint Update/CU.
For Office365 - SharePoint and have you have license account, you should submit the service request, if not you should wait about several day and try to remove this app instance again through UI.
Hope you can remove your app and know the root cause exactly.
I have faced this issue some times in on-premises SharePoint.
But for solving this I gave another account (or you can use 1 that you have) shell admin rights.
Note this account CAN'T be marked as a System account on SharePoint!!
Then with this different shell admin account you execute the same script. That always worked for me (I also got some strange installation behavior and needed do remove the app).

What is this vague error with 'redirection.config' while building a Web Deploy package?

I'm trying to build a Web Deploy package via msbuild on a new machine and it's not working. It builds fine on other machines, but here I get the following vague error:
...\Microsoft.Web.Publishing.targets(2767,5): error : Filename: redirection.config
...\Microsoft.Web.Publishing.targets(2767,5): error : Error: Cannot read configuration file
...\Microsoft.Web.Publishing.targets(2767,5): error :
...\Microsoft.Web.Publishing.targets(2767,5): error : Unknown error (0x80005000)
I'm not sure what 'redirection.config' is, and the line reference to the .targets file doesn't help at all.
How can I fix this?
redirection.config is a file that lives in the IIS configuration directory, typically %SystemRoot%\System32\inetsrv\config. Here are two possibilities:
The account building your project doesn't have access to the IIS config dir. This might happen if you have an automated build identity with special permissions, or you if you need to start Visual Studio as an administrator.
You don't have IIS installed at all on the new machine. Check to be sure the IIS config directory, and redirection.config in particular, even exist. If not, you'll need to install IIS.
If you receive this error when deploying with Release Managment (via IISConfig.exe) be sure that the deployment agent service account is in the local Administrators group. You may need to restart the deployment agent service.

Insufficient Permissions Problems with MSDeploy and TFS Build 2010
For me, simply running visual studio as admin gave it the elevated permissions it needed to operate against this folder.
May work for others.
I got this error when I tried to use a relative path for the contentPath setting. I fixed it by settings the contentPath to the full path of the folder. Without the full path, the contentPath provider thinks it is a site path or application path and looks for it in in the IIS configuration.
This error just appeared to me when my C# project was referencing the Microsoft.Web.Administration, Version=7.9.0.0 assembly. It looks like this assembly only works with IIS Express. For IIS, we must use Microsoft.Web.Administration, Version=7.0.0.0.
After hours of testing and troubleshooting this problem turned out to be an issue with the users profile.
This was found by logging in as myself and I didn't receive the same issue.
To fix this issue:
Log into the machine as an administrator and delete the contents of the corrupt profile from C:\Users (or rename the folder to username.OLD)
Open up the registry and navigate here – HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\ CurrentVersion\ProfileList
Find the corrupt profile and rename this to .OLD or remove it.

As this is high in search engines when looking for this error, I'll post my solution.
I used Azure Pipelines to release the app to IIS and had this error. My issue was that I mistakenly used Build Agent job instead of Deployment Group job when configuring the release pipeline.
On server 2012 this error can be caused by UAC which needs to be disabled via the registry.

Registry permission for Visual Studio 2012

During web application creating i got below popup message:
"Visual studio does not have permissions to read the template information from the registry. this is often caused by registry permission problem."
Any one have any solution?
Please help me. i wana to see Visual Studio new features.
Thanks
this might be quite late as an answer, but I excpierienced the same problem and I found the solution on a msdn page : here is the original solution message :
I came across this issue with Visual Studio 2010 and Windows 7. I did not find this problems source as of yet but, I have found many Visual Studio users encountering it. I tried Michael's solution to this problem and it did more damage then anything else. It even went as far as to make Visual studio to boot into "Shell mode" and tell me the registration was not valid.
Using System Restore I rolled back the changes made by the subinacl tool and Michaels script (it probably was not meant for Windows 7, causing the errors in the first place) .
being a long time visual studio user and a pretty good trouble shooter, I knew the subinacl was the proper tool to correct the problem, but the script was incorrect for my perticular setup. I adjusted the script as follows: (this is a batch script)
cd /d "%programfiles% (x86)\Windows Resource Kits\Tools"
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VisualStudio* /setowner=domain\user
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VisualStudio* /grant=everyone=f
/grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
pause
I tried to include the "setowner" command with the grant commands (on the same line) but it would throw errors all the time.
This script fixed MY "Requested registry access is not allowed" with Windows 7 and Visual Studio 2010.
if you want to try this script: Follow Michael's instructions, but use the script provided in this post and replace the "domain\user" with the proper credentials. You may also need to change the Path of Windows Resource Kits if you installed it in a diffrnet place or are not using a 64 bit OS. Before using this script please backup your registry.
I hope that that helped!

I had this problem too. Followed the post by user2698666 without success. Stuck Process Monitor on it and found there were more registry entries causing a problem called WDExpress. Thought I'd post my fix incase anyone else has same problem:
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VisualStudio* /setowner=domain\user
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VisualStudio* /grant=everyone=f /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WDExpress* /setowner=domain\user
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WDExpress* /grant=everyone=f /grant=administrators=f /grant=system=f
I had the problem with Visual Studio 13, where i wanted to add a webtest project for my newly created solution.
Tried the above trics to set ACL but it didn't work.
Finally used the Procmon.exe to locate what visual studio was doing (Include only process name devenv.exe) and look for result Access Denied. It will tell you what registry key is not accessible.
In my case it was the regkey HKCR.webtest (HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT.webtest) that caused the problem. Taking ownership and assigning acces to this solved my problem.
I do not know how the root cause of the problem.
The above didnt work for me as I kept being denied in regedit even though i was admin.
I found this on another site:
psexec -i -d -s c:\windows\regedit.exe
psexec is available from Microsoft here
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897553.aspx
This gave me full registry access. I tried to give admin owner to specific keys like above but VS 2012 express was still throwing that registry permission error. So I finally just added Administrator to the permission list of the entire HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\ directory in regedit. Then gave admins full control.
This worked. I can now create a project without that infernal error!
This issue has nothing to do with permissions in the context discussed. The issue is caused by an incorrect path to the template files in the registry due to sloppy installation program testing by Microsoft. The incorrect path throws an error when a user tries to start a new project and, true to Microsoft style, displays a generic and meaningless error message about permissions.
Here's the issue specifically. In some machines (assuming C: is the primary drive and user1 is the user's login name and version 2013) the location of the template files is C:\users\user1\my documents\visual studio 2013\projects. Unfortunately, the installation path written by the installer in the registry is C:\users\user1\documents\visual studio 2013\projects. So, it's pointing to \documents while the correct location is \my documents. To be sure, look where your visual studio 2013\projects folder is located - either documents or my documents - and change the registry key to the correct location.
For my example the key is at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\NewProjectDialog\MRUSettingsLocalProjectLocationEntries the path is located in the Value0 entry. Check it and change to make it point to exactly where your project folder is.
Lars Meldgard's use of ProcMon was a good tip and helped me. I just wanted to include a picture of what an access denied looks like in ProcMon. I had to do it one registry key at a time--this wasn't the only one. It was very cumbersome and slow, but I was able to knock them off one by one and give full rights on each one. (That part is a hassle too, because I had to take ownership, then close regedit, then go back in so I could set the permissions; you can't do it all in one fell swoop.)
