Unable to install server - Cannot Start Application

[tmcbride67 1]

I am trying to install the MediaBrowser server on my Windows Server 2012 box.  I had successefull installed the server a while back but then uninstalled it a week ago.  I am now trying to reinstall the software, however every time I try to run the installer I get the following error:

 

"Cannot Start Application     Application cannot be started.  Contact the application vendor."

 

 

I have tried downloading the install file several times (Current version, not the beta) but always get the same error.  Below are the detailed notes from the installation failure.  Any help would be appreciated.

Google "clear ClickOnce cache" and do that.  Then try again.
