There's a section in the README.md document that says to either install this from $env:TEMP\temp\crossmeta or $env:TEMP\crossmeta (it's unclear which). However, that does not solve the problem. I have tried installing it from an Administrator prompt in both directories, and still end up with the above-mentioned error message.

[crossmeta]

VerInstallFile 0x800 is

VIF_CANNOTCREATE 0x00000800L  The function cannot create the temporary file. The specific error may be described by another flag.

This would also mean the V: drive destination drive is not available for copying. Did the Crossmeta VFS drivers start fine during installation? After you see this error you can launch another window and check whether you can accessr V: drive

Also sc query cxvfs will give you the status of the driver.

For installation after downloading the zip file, Open from the downloads and then Extract All zip file. Look for setup.exe and try to run as Administrator.

That's what I did. I ran it from an elevated Administrator prompt, and still got the error. The files got installed, however I was not able to start the service.

Running sc query cxvfs returns no output.
