Microsoft said it will soon roll out a new update to fix the installer error. For users who are experiencing this error, the temporary solution is to uninstall and reinstall the latest version of the faulty application.

Technology corresponding to the device. At this time, the two latest driver updates are 10.30.00.5714 or 10.29.00.5714, depending on the model.
