SUMMARY

Microsoft virtual machine (Microsoft VM) builds greater than 3188 and 2442 do not install on systems with Internet Explorer 3.x because the crypto and DCOM binaries are no longer included with the stand-alone Microsoft Virtual Machine installer. These system components are included with Internet Explorer 4.01 Service Pack 2 and later.

MORE INFORMATION

For systems containing Internet Explorer 3.x wherein a 24xx or later build of the Microsoft VM needs to be updated, you can use one of the following commands to override the aforementioned behavior:

For normal upgrades:

On Microsoft VM 31xx builds greater than 3188:
msjavx86.exe /c:"javatrig.exe /exe_install /l /noie4check"
				
On Microsoft VM 24xx builds greater than 2442:
msjavx86.exe /c:"javatrig.exe /l /noie4check"
				

For silent installs:

On Microsoft VM 31xx builds greater than 3188:
msjavx86.exe /c:"javatrig.exe /exe_install /l /q /noie4check" /q:a
				
On Microsoft VM 24xx builds greater than 2442:
msjavx86.exe /c:"javatrig.exe /l /q /noie4check" /q:a
				

For no-reboot, add "/r:n" to the command as follows:
msjavx86.exe /c:"javatrig.exe /exe_install /l /q /noie4check" /r:n /q:a
