How to Fix Oracle Client OUI Disappearing Issue in Windows

Error: While installing the Oracle Client with OUI utility it disappear after 5-10 seconds without any log message.

Solution:

First of all, Check the OUI is running from administrator rights in Windows.

Secondly, check from the tasklist command that inventory is used by any other process

tasklist /m ora*

    Thirdly, Check the window registry for following locations:

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE]--inst_loc
and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Oracle]--inst_loc

    Both path must point to the same value like C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory.
