Hello everyone,
I hope you're doing well. I'm seeking advice regarding an issue I encountered after migrating my PC from Windows 10 to Windows 11.
The problem lies with a setup created using Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Projects 2022, which no longer works correctly post-migration. I’m receiving the following error message:
The description for Event ID 11001 from source MsiInstaller cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.
If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
The following information was included with the event:
Product: MyProduct -- Error 1001. InstallUtilLib.dll:CorBindToRuntimeHost (hr=0x80070003): The specified path could not be found.
To provide more context:
Has anyone encountered this issue before or knows what might be causing it? Any advice or potential solutions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Best regards,

In general issues with a VS extension from MS should be posted in the Developer Community. You'll potentially get a response directly from the team.
For your specific issue it appears you may have custom actions in your installer. Furthermore your custom action is using .NET and most likely the version of .NET that your installer needs isn't installed and hence it cannot bind to the runtime. Check your installer to determine what version of .NET it requires and then ensure that the version is a prerequisite for your installer.
I'm going to guess that your previous machine had a version of NET that the newer OS doesn't have. Note that all versions of NET 4.x use the same runtime so you should be fine there. What you're looking for is older NET frameworks perhaps.
Hello,
Thank you for your reply. I had already explored this possibility, but my custom actions, which refers to System.Configuration.Install, is in 4.8.1 and my installation refers to this same Framework...
I really don't see why it doesn't work anymore after migrating from Windows 10 to Windows 11.
It seems like this may be an issue with the extension. See here for someone reporting a similar issue. Unfortunately I cannot see their actual error but it sounds like the issue you're seeing. I would recommend you add your information to that support ticket and let MS look into it.
All right, I'll do that. Thank you for your help.
