Unable to Locate KFS Configuration Folder Error Installing KFS 4.3 Capture Administration Plugin

Issue

The KFS 4.3 Kofax Capture Administration Plugin installer exits without completing the installation and reports the following error:

Unable to locate the Kofax Front Office Server Configuration folder

Cause

The KFS 4.3 Kofax Capture Administration Plugin installer installs the Plugin files, but fails to complete the registration of the Plugin because it is looking for the KFS Configuration folder in the wrong location.  This issue has been resolved in Fix Pack 1 and higher for KFS 4.3.

1. Open an elevated Command Prompt "as administrator".

   Capture Server (default path):
   cd "c:\Program Files (x86)\Kofax\CaptureSS\ServLib\bin" 
   
   Capture Workstation (default path):
   cd "c:\Program Files (x86)\Kofax\Capture\bin" 
    
3. Execute the following command:
   RegAscEx.exe /f KFSAdmin.aex /x "KFS Admin" > KFSAdmin.log
    
4. Run the Kofax Capture Administration Module and confirm that the Kofax Front Office Server menu item is present
