Description

With the installation packages for VirtualBox 5.2.x on Windows the ProductCode that can be read from the MSI files, is not the ProductCode that is found on the system after Installation.

E.g.:

VersionMSI value"real" value
5.2.0-r118431 {1E6A323C-1BE9-49B6-8FDC-107307DBC6CE}{9df09fcf-7f55-402e-aab8-67ffba56ea3b}
5.2.2-r119230 {9F5D10F9-A372-4B1E-BEB3-001B47E0C325}{b4758fb7-76a2-4391-aca1-6bffcfc90c40}
5.2.3-119337 {8B91C2E7-6A86-43AE-8797-48A61E6C59AB}{9988FC09-BE58-4DF3-9943-AC14E7A0882C}

This breaks the common procedure ind automated software deployment:

  1. extract ProductID from MSI
  2. install MSI
  3. check whether MSI for ProductID is installed
