my os is windows2012 R2, I try to install splunk uf 9.0.0.1.
first, I uninstall old splunk UF 7.0.2 from "uninstall program", then clean registry.
then I install new splunk UF 9.0.0.1. but it failed.
the error is 
MSI (s) (2C:28) [05:37:40:433]: Hello, I'm your 64bit Elevated Non-remapped custom action server.
InstallRegmonDrv: Warning: Invalid property ignored: FailCA=.

I try to run "sfc /scannow" and reboot server, it doesn't resolve my issue

I also run "sfc.exe /verifyfile=%windir%\system32\difxapi.dll" and "sfc.exe /scanfile=%windir%\system32\difxapi.dll" . it also doesn't resolve my issue.
