Dynamics CRM 2013 for Outlook 2013 Setup Hangs on "Preparing..." RRS feed

  • Question

  • When I try to install "Dynamics CRM 2013 for Outlook 2013" and it hangs on the screen:

    --------------------------------------------

    Installation Progress
    Components are now being installed.

    Preparing...

    ---------------------------------------------

    I left the installer for one whole day, but nothing happened.

    (My OS is Win 8.1 + Outlook 2013)

    Here is the LOG (I have found no clue in here):

  • LEOSS,

    Did you ever find a solution to this problem? If so could you help me, I am running into the exact same issue. The installer gets to 

    Installation Progress
    Components are now being installed.

    Preparing...

    Then just sits there.

  • Turn off WIFI or any internet connection before installation > it will be view error without hanging .

    I made this step and found that I have fire ware restriction to link http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=402059&clcid=0x409
