[Windows 10] Sourcetree fails to install

[ajjohnson1996]

Sourcetree was crashing right after starting, so I decided to completely reinstall it.  I deleted the Atlassian and Sourcetree folder in my local folder.  The first time running the setup executable SquirrelSetup.log outputs this:

 Any idea why it would do this and what I need to do to fix it?

Hi

Looking at the 2nd log file, this is not really an error:

2019-02-05 12:56:09> CheckForUpdateImpl: Couldn't write out staging user ID, this user probably shouldn't get beta anything: System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Users\AlexJ\AppData\Local\SourceTree\packages\.betaId'.

You can ignore that. It is just an overzealous log message from the Squirrel.Windows installer.

This looks more significant

2019-02-05 12:59:00> IEnableLogger: Failed to remove existing directory on full install, is the app still running???: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\Users\AlexJ\AppData\Local\SourceTree\app-3.0.15\Atlassian.AnalyticsService.Client.dll' is denied.


It looks like it is trying to overwrite/delete Atlassian.analyticsservice.client.dll  I'd make sure nothing Sourcetree related is still running, perhaps restart your workstation. Unless a previous installer was run as administrator? That might cause a similar issue.

The first log file looks like it completed successfully.

After restarting and then re-running the installer, if Soucetree doesn't start automatically check the C:\Users\AlexJ\AppData\Local\SourceTree folder. It should contain a Sourcetree.exe file and an app-3.0.15 folder.

That Sourcetree.exe is actually a shortcut to app-3.0.15/sourcetree.exe. Try running Sourcetree.exe and if that doesn't work try app-3.0.15/sourcetree.exe.

If Sourcetree fails to start it should log to %localappdata%/Atlassian/Sourcetree/sourcetree.log. Post any errors from there to this ticket.

It fixed itself on its own, I have no idea why but it works now.
