WU_E_MSI_WRONG_APP_CONTEXT
WU_E_MSI_WRONG_APP_CONTEXT means the update expects a per-machine application, but the target application is installed in a per-user Windows Installer context. A machine-level servicing operation cannot automatically update another user’s private installation.
What to do
- Confirm whether the application was installed per-user or per-machine.
- Use the application vendor’s supported per-user update workflow when that is the intended deployment model.
- For enterprise deployment, package or install the application in the context that matches the update mechanism being used.
