Environment
Windows 2003 Standard SP2 Server (32-bit)
Symantec Endpoint Protection version 12.1.671.4971
Solution
Possible workaround:
Create an install package or create a custom setting under the “Client Install Settings” options to not use “Add the program to the Start Menu”, leave this unchecked.
If the install is successful, manually create the shortcut on the desktop that points SymCorpUI.exe.
