I am trying to install microfocus visual cobol version 7. on New Dell Laptop. when executing the installer program opens and closes without any error. I was able to produce a log report,

Here is the log it produced:

What error are you receiving when trying to install? Does it simply flash a window and then go away?

Could this Knoiwledgebase article be referring to the same issue?
