NOTE: If you run the installer from another system and try to add a component using the Modify option, the installer
may display an error. A corrupt source on the system on which you run the installer may have caused the error.
You can verify this by checking the following registry entry: HKLM\Software\Classes\Installer\Products\<GUID>
\sourcelist\lastusedsource. If the value of lastusedsource is a negative number, it means that the source is corrupt.
